"Everything super nice, clean, pleasant, and thoughtful. Yola did a great job at check-in. The tents are 5-10 minutes nice walk from the beach.

Parking is free and there’s plenty. Pop. of 1600, it’s clean, quiet and close to many places of interest. There’s a fish processing plant so you get an occasional whiff but Þorlákshöfn was truly a relaxing, fun, quiet alternative to Reykjavík.
