Fargjald miðast við aðra leið til Norðurfjarðar

Drangavík is a small fjord north of Eyvindarfjörður and south of Bjarnafjörður. It was previously inhabited, and the only farm was abandoned in 1947, but townhouses still stand there but have collapsed. At the eastern side of the bay, the famous Drangaskörð. They are magnificent and worth a visit.

Drangar is north of Drangaskörð. There was permanent residence there until 1966 and the family who last lived in Dranga still go there over summertime. Húsá falls into the sea, on which there is a footbridge. West of the river is Laugamýri where hot water can be found. Bæjarfjall. Bænahús var forðum á Dröngum, enda langt að sækja í næstu kirkju. Skammt norðan við Dranga fellur Húsá til sjávar, á henni er göngubrú. Vestur af ánni er Laugamýri þar sem heitt vatn er að finna.

Þorvaldur Ásvaldsson, faðir Eiríks rauða, var landnámsmaður á Dröngum. Er sagt að hann sé heygður að Meyjarseli, sem er nokkuð norðan við Dranga. Þar eru miklar tóftir á Meyjarselstanga. Upp af tanganum eru þrír Selhólar og á Þorvaldur að hvíla í einum þeirra. Fram af Meyjarselstanga er Tólfmannaboði. Þar áttu að hafa farist 12 menn sem voru á leið til messu á Dröngum á gamlársdag. 

At Drangar there is a camping site and a numerous of hiking trails.

Passengers will go ashore in a dinghy.
