This live stream looks over the harbour of Húsavík, a small fishing and whale-watching port on Skjálfandi Bay. It is useful for seeing how the harbour looks right now and whether the sea and sky are calm before you plan a trip out on the water.
About Húsavík
Húsavík sits on the shore of Skjálfandi Bay in North East Iceland, a town of a few thousand people set between the sea and steep green hills. It is widely known as one of the best places in the country for whale watching, and boats leave from the harbour throughout the season. The surrounding landscape is open, with mountains across the bay and a clear, northern light that changes quickly through the day.
What the camera shows
The camera is aimed at the port, so the view is most useful for checking activity along the quay, the state of the water and the weather coming in over the bay. Depending on the view, you may see boats moored or leaving, and the sea conditions are often easiest to judge in the morning and late afternoon. Winter brings low light and short days, while summer keeps the sky bright for much of the night.
Climate and getting there
Húsavík has a subarctic maritime climate with cool summers and mild, wet winters, and wind is common year round, so a warm layer is worth bringing even in summer. The town is a short drive from Akureyri and is a base for trips to Lake Mývatn and the Goðafoss waterfall. The other cameras in the region, including Akureyri and Siglufjörður, are listed on this page for comparison.
