Old Harbour

Old Harbour

For decades, the Old Harbour in Reykjavík has been the beating heart of the island – the city was literally built around it. Now, it’s a fantastic place for a bit of exploration. As you stroll, spot the distinctive glass-domed Harpa Concert Hall, visit the Kolaportið flea market at the weekends and head to Bæjarins Beztu for a surprising delicacy – the best hotdog on the island!
