About Klakkeyjar
„Fjórar eyjar norður af Hrappsey, oft nefndar Dímonarklakkar. Tvær þeirra, hinir eiginlegu Dímonarklakkar, eru hæstar (71 m y.s.). Eru þær keilulaga og ber hátt yfir eyjarnar í kring. Þar er vogur sá sem sagt er að Eiríkur rauði hafi leynt skipi sínu í meðan hann bjó sig til Grænlandsferðar. Klakkeyjar voru áður byggðar og er Bæjarey stærst“ (1). Eyjarnar eru friðaðar vegna einstaks landslags (2). „Klakkeyja má og njóta sem afgerandi útsýnis yfir eyjarnar í mynni Hvammsfjarðar, hvort sem er af veginum eða af Klofningi“ (3).
A fascinating geological formation, a product of Iceland's volcanic origins.
