Just a short drive from Reykjavik, Hafnarfjordur is a charming little town that feels a world away from the capital. With a population of just over 30,000, Hafnarfjordur is a bustling place with a strong community spirit. The town is built on lava fields, and is known for its many unusual rock formations. There are also a number of interesting museums, including the quirky Fjöruhús, or ‘House of Fish’, which is dedicated to the fishing industry. Hafnarfjordur is also a great place to enjoy the great outdoors, with plenty of hiking and cycling trails in the area. And don’t forget to enjoy a coffee or a beer in one of the town’s many charming cafes and pubs.
