Itinerary
Nestled at the edge of the world, this storybook village is known for its elfin folklore, tranquil coastal views, and puffin colonies. You’ll have time to explore the harbor, photograph turf-roofed houses, and maybe even spot seals or seabirds offshore.
Located at the marina just outside the village, Hafnarhólmi is one of the safest and most accessible places to observe puffins in Iceland. Around 10,000 puffin pairs nest here each summer between mid-April and mid-August, and visitors can walk along wooden paths and platforms to view them up close — all without disturbing the fragile burrows or risking a cliffside stumble.
