Grettislaug

Reviewed By Madeline_Faye

This campsite is one of my favorite places in Iceland!! It's got views like no other and the people that work there are so friendly. The kitchen is spacious and warm, there are two different bathroom areas, and a wonderful thermal bath. If you're looking for a good shower then this isn't the place but I rinsed off in the shower head outside by the thermal bath and that was good enough for me! Not only do I love the views here but this place also sells affordable food and beer in their cafe, which is adorable, AND while my friends and I were in the thermal bath at midnight and then tent camping and setting up for bed around 1 am we saw the Northern Lights both times (this was in mid August). It was AMAZING. The thermal bath is really really warm and you can hear the ocean waves while bathing in it. The beach nearby is a gorgeous walk and one of the coolest beaches I've been on with a really awesome swing right on the black sand to enjoy. GREAT PLACE!

Icelandic Seal Center

Reviewed By KaiR656 - Tampa, United States

This is a very short drive off the main highway and worth a visit. A variety of displays give you a snapshot into the seals that frequent Iceland. Learning how quickly seal pups grow up and watching the tracking of one young pup was fascinating. We were glad we decided to stop here.

Hvitserkur

Reviewed By Welsh_Wizz - Swansea, United Kingdom

This part of Iceland is just beautiful and the drive to get here is as lovely as the sea sculpture itself. Be sure to walk / drive to Osar and see the seals.
