Out and About in Keflavik

The city is small and readily explored on foot, so any of the Keflavik hotels will be a perfect place to begin your stay here. Head to the city's harbor and join the next whale watching tour, where you'll hopefully catch glimpses of humpbacks, minke whales, orcas, and dolphins. Then check out the Vikingaheimar, a museum and exhibition center that displays Viking relics, in the neighboring town of Njarðvík. If you need a change of scenery, the country's capital and largest city of Reykjavík is 30 miles away; you can reach it via taxi or rental car. On your way there, don't miss the Blue Lagoon, a geothermal spa with warm, mineral-rich waters that's one of Iceland's top tourist destinations.

Eating and Drinking

Keflavik's oceanfront location means it's the perfect place to catch seaside views while dining out. While you're in Iceland, be sure to try the local cuisine. Highlights include skyr (a yogurt-like dairy product), hangikjöt (smoked lamb or horse meat), and rúgbrauð (traditional dark rye bread). Those with strong stomachs and open minds might enjoy hákarl, a local delicacy with a pungent odor consisting of fermented shark.
