Mountain-flanked Reykjavik may draw the majority of Iceland travelers, but
beyond this capital city's immersive museums and spirited establishments, a host
of charming small towns await. These quaint getaways take hygge and hospitality
seriously, from fresh fish caught steps from restaurant doors to local tour
guides eager to show why their home fjord is the best.

Rental cars or campervans are a must for reaching these far-flung destinations,
but with jaw-dropping scenery, warm welcomes, and hearty fare — not to mention
incredible northern lights views — these destinations are well worth the trip.
Here are eight of the best small towns in Iceland to add to your travel list.




VÍK

Nestled between towering mountains and the moody sea, Vík and its bright white
hilltop church provide the ultimate Iceland backdrop. While small, with
approximately 300 inhabitants, the seaside village offers a variety of
can't-beat attractions: aurora borealis sightings, a black-sand beach, and
delicious Icelandic restaurants like the hip Halldórskaffi.






HÚSAVÍK

Harbor at Skjálfandi Bay, Husavik, Northeastern Region, Iceland

Situated along Iceland's craggy northern coast, quaint Húsavík brims with
small-town appeal. It's Iceland's "whale capital," with up to 23 species visible
from the waterfront harbor and Skjálfandi Bay, accessible via whale-watching
boat tours. Húsavík is also one of Iceland's oldest settlements, and believed to
be the first place in the country that was settled by the Norse.




SIGLUFJÖRÐUR

is surrounded by a majestic mountain range

Iceland's northernmost town, Siglufjörður, is about as postcard-worthy as it
gets. Boldly colored buildings dot the fishing town's snow-speckled slopes,
while the harbor's herring and sailing boats add scale to the soaring
surrounding mountains. This town of approximately 1,300 may be small, but it's
full of Icelandic charisma. Visit The Herring Era Museum, tap your toes at the
Folk Music Center, or admire the fjord on horseback before cozying up to watch
those nighttime auroras glow.




BREIÐDALSVÍK

Witness Iceland's lesser-seen side: the Eastfjords, home to the tiny fishing
village of Breiðdalsvík. This sprinkling of houses, restaurants, and hotels
looks tiny among the town's dramatic neighbors: ancient volcanoes, sky-high
mountains, and nothing but rugged sea between here and Norway. Breiðdalsvík
promises that small-town Iceland welcome, with two hotels, the Beljandi Brewery,
and an old general store, plus tours to see and experience it all.




HÖFN

Höfn offers two of Iceland's signature attractions: fire and ice. It's located
along the southeast coast near two top attractions: Vatnajökull glacier, the
largest in Europe at 5,250 square miles, and Vatnajökull National Park, home to
eight volcanoes. In addition to jaw-dropping natural features, Höfn welcomes
tourists with local shops, hotels, restaurants, and museums like the
Hornafjördur Art Museum. Don't miss the 80-foot Höfn swimming pool, complete
with all the Iceland bathing essentials: hot tubs, steam baths, and an ice bath.




SEYÐISFJÖRÐUR

seydisfjordur in the East Fjord of Iceland

Seyðisfjörður is another hidden east Iceland gem. This vibrant town of about 700
is tucked away in the innermost nook of its namesake fjord. A string of white
houses sits tiny beneath the charcoal mountains, speckled with greenery in the
summer and snow from fall through spring. Experience the town's culture through
its local shops and restaurants, such as the artsy Skaftfell Bistro, complete
with its own on-site library.




GRIMSEY ISLAND

Home to no more than 100 people — but one million seabirds — Grimsey Island off
Iceland's northern coast is about as far-flung as the country gets. The
cliff-fringed island, an emerald speck in the vast Arctic Ocean, is home to
hordes of puffins from spring through summer. Grimsey Island's residents live by
the harbor in a quaint fishing village, which has a stark white church, a
handful of small hotels, and warm gathering places like Restaurant Krían, where
catch of the day is the local staple. Get here via ferry from Dalvík on the
mainland.




SUÐUREYRI

Port, Djúpivogur, Sudur-Mulasysla, Iceland

Situated on the far north fingertip of the rugged Súgandafjörður in the
Westfjords region, Suðureyri is another idyllic fishing town with a side of
adventure. Wide-open ocean lies between the mountain-framed Suðureyri and
Greenland. Accommodations and restaurants are limited in this isolated getaway,
but the rustic Fisherman Hotel offers rooms with shared bathrooms as well as the
best in Icelandic welcomes: a seafood restaurant with fresh-from-the-doorstep
fare.
