                  Just minutes from Keflavík Airport, this seaside museum and information center makes for a perfect first or last stop in summer. Climb one of only two lighthouses in Iceland that open their doors to visitors — the views over the Atlantic are worth every step. Explore exhibits on early 20th-century Icelandic life, vintage boats, and a 1921-style shop, free of charge.

                  Open May to September from 10:00- 17:00.
