Árbæjarsafn Open-Air Museum
2 km away (air distance)
The museum, part of the Reykjavík City Museum, began collecting buildings that were threatened by redevelopment in the city centre. Instead of demolishing them, they were moved here and restored. Together they give a vivid sense of how Reykjavík grew from a small fishing and farming settlement into a modern capital over the past two centuries.
Laugardalur Valley
7 km away (air distance)
Joining locals in the hot pots is one of the most authentic things you can do in the city; bring a swimsuit and shower thoroughly first, as is the custom. The botanical garden is a peaceful stop in summer, and you could spend half a day in the area, especially with children. It is easy to reach by bus.
Sky Lagoon
7 km away (air distance)
It's best to book ahead, particularly for evening and summer slots, and you should plan on two to three hours. The lagoon is a short drive or bus ride from central Reykjavík, which makes it a convenient alternative to the Blue Lagoon, especially if you are not heading toward the airport. Sunset sessions are especially atmospheric.
