The West Fjords is the name for the large peninsula in northwestern Iceland. It is connected to the rest of Iceland by a 7km wide isthmus between Gilsfjör∂ur and Bitrufjör∂ur. The West Fjords are very mountainous; the coastline is heavily indented by dozens of fjords surrounded by steep hills. The cliffs at Látrabjard comprise the longest bird cliff in the northern Atlantic Ocean and are at the westernmost region of Iceland.
