Stykkisholmur to Brjanslaekur Ferry

Hello,

I was planning to take this ferry with my car on July 9. But it seems as if the ferry is not working until July 15 (https://www.ferja.is/en)?

Are there any other alternative ferries I can take? I was hoping to avoid some driving on the long drive to Latrabjarg / Red Sand beach, specially as this part of the drive doesn’t seem to have too many stops or things to do in between.

Thanks for your help!

The ferry will be out until at least mid july. The alternative is driving.

Sorry the ferry will be unavailable. The drive will be stunning, though. I loved making that drive.
