Akureyri

Nestled at the far end of the Eyjafjörður, Akureyri is Iceland's second largest city, and is the economic and transportation center of the region. However, the small town with a population of 20,000 has a quiet and relaxed atmosphere. While staying here, you can enjoy a fulfilling trip to the surrounding tourist spots such as Lake Mývatn and the Ásbyrgi canyon, or participate in whale watching.
