The seals. They come in around sunset and chill on the beach. We saw them from a distance but were so tired we opted to wait until sunrise to get a closer look. Unfortunately they were gone so sunset is your best best. Also make sure you walk just a tad north on the beach to see Hvitserkur up close.

Picture of the Hostel

HI Hostel Ósar

Osar is located on the Vatnsnes Peninsula, 25 km north of road no. 1. Over the last three years the hostel has been completely renovated. An unusually beautiful sunset gives the Hostel its name. Ósar ocean beach is full of life. Seals abound and also eider ducks and other birds, and the rock Hvítserkur, which resembles a prehistoric Dinosaur, is within walking distance from the Hostel. The unspoiled nature, peaceful environment and a variety of recreation opportunities makes Ósar an ideal stop in an Iceland tour. In only about 5 min walk you are in unusually close contact with nature. Here guests can see a number of different birds and one of Iceland´s biggest colonies of seals , swimming only a few meters from the beach. Next Hostels: Sæberg, 60 km - Akureyri, 250 km. | more......
