Akureyri is Iceland's second city in spirit if not size, a lively fjord town with a botanical garden, an Art Deco church and cafes that stay open when the weather turns. It is the practical base for whale watching, ski days in Hlíðarfjall and the Diamond Circle drive.
Where to stay
The center and the harbor are walkable and have the best choice of small hotels, many in restored wooden or stone houses. A few family-run places sit just outside town with views over Eyjafjörður.
Good to know
The city is a good place to dine well, with several restaurants working with fish and lamb from the fjord. Winter brings northern lights and snow, summer the midnight sun. Flights from Reykjavík take under an hour.
