Húsavík

 
 

Húsavík is a huge tourist destination in Iceland for several reasons. This exquisite harbor town is one of the best places to spot whales. Countless numbers of whale watching tours depart from the harbor each and everyday so that all visitors can get a close up view of these majestic animals in their natural habitat. With such a strong link between whales and Húsavík, the Whale Museum in the town's centre adds to the experience of visitors. It actually is an award-winning museum as well as a fun stop in the village. The town's available museums do not stop with the Whale Museum though. Their local history museum is certainly worth a visit. Also, the eccentric Phallological Museum is a special addition to the entire world if you want to see something completely unique while you visit the town of Húsavík. It looks at the impact of male genitalia of all species on art, history, and many other areas.
