The Best Sight in Akranes, West Iceland and Snæfellsnes Peninsula

Perhaps Iceland's most picturesque geothermal spa, Hvammsvík is located on a peninsula just off the scenic Hvalfjörður road, once a major thoroughfare to northern Iceland. Skip the crowds of the Blue Lagoon and grab a cold beverage in one of the heated pools right by the waterline or brave a polar bear plunge in the adjacent sea. The restaurant serves up classic Scandinavian soups and open-faced sandwiches.
