Bjarnarhöfn Shark Museum

Located in the town of Bjarnarhöfn right outside of Stykkishólmur, this museum is the place to go if you want to learn all about the wonderous shark. You can even give Iceland's traditional fermented shark dish a taste here.

Library of Water

Iceland has no shortage of thought-provoking art exhibits and museums, but the Library of Water is one of its most unique. The main exhibit, Water, Selected, presents 24 glass columns filled with melted ice collected from glaciers around the country. When light hits the glass columns, beams are reflected onto a rubber floor embossed with both Icelandic and English words pertaining to the weather.
