Want to experience Iceland beyond Reykjavík? Húsavík, on the country’s remote northern coast, is one of the world’s best places to see whales. This tiny, colorful fishing town offers unforgettable boat tours where you can spot humpback, minke, and even blue whales against a backdrop of snow-capped mountains and dramatic fjords. On land, visit the Whale Museum, soak in the GeoSea thermal baths, or grab a coffee in a cozy café while enjoying Iceland’s wild, untouched beauty. If your cruise ventures north, Húsavík is an absolute must-visit!
