Husavik
Imagine a place where the sun never sets, where whales frolic in the bay, and where nature’s wonders are just a stone’s throw away. Welcome to Húsavík, Iceland’s North Star. This town serves as a gateway to the breathtaking Mývatn region and Jökulsárgljúfur National Park. Known as the whale watching capital of Iceland, you can spot different species in the bay and learn more at the Húsavík Whale Museum. Don’t miss the iconic wooden church, Húsavíkurkirkja, built in 1907. Shopping centers like Ísfell store and Skóbúð Húsavíkur are open from 9:00-6:00 on weekdays and 10:00-4:00 on weekends.
