This live camera looks out over Húsavík, a fishing town on Skjálfandi Bay in north-east Iceland. It is a useful way to see the harbour and the bay conditions in real time. Viewers often check it before a whale-watching trip or a drive along the coast.

About Húsavík

Húsavík sits on the shore of Skjálfandi Bay, a short drive from Lake Mývatn and the Goðafoss waterfall. The town has long lived from fishing and, more recently, from whale-watching tours that leave from its harbour. Its setting combines open sea, low green hills and a sharp, clear light that changes quickly through the day.

What the camera shows

The title points to the harbour, so the view is most likely centred on the boats, the quay and the water of the bay. Depending on the angle, you may also see the coastline and the mountains across the bay. Conditions are worth watching in the morning, when tour boats usually depart, and during wind or fog, which can change the sea quickly.

Planning a visit

Húsavík has a subarctic maritime climate with cool summers and mild, wet winters, and wind is common year round. Summer offers long daylight, which suits boat trips and hiking. Nearby Akureyri, about 52 km away, is the largest town in the north and a convenient base for exploring the region.
