The Westman Islands Golf Club is an 18-hole course carved into volcanic terrain on Heimaey, offering a one-of-a-kind golfing experience. The layout winds through lava fields and along the coast, with the North Atlantic as a constant backdrop. Players must contend with strong winds and uneven lies, making every round a test of skill. The course is open to visitors, and the clubhouse provides equipment rental and a welcoming atmosphere. Even non-golfers can enjoy the scenery from the clubhouse terrace.
