Downtown Akureyri - North Iceland

Walking downtown #Akureyri and the waterfront in the North of #Iceland. Akureyri (pronounced ‘ah-koo-rare-ee’) is Iceland’s second biggest city but has a population of only 18,000. It sits at the end of the Eyjafjörður fjord and is a popular day stop for cruise ships, there was a different ship there every day. Although, as they were not massive ships, they didn’t overwhelm the small town. The Akureyrarkirkja (Church of Akureyri) sits on a hill above the town and has great views over the town. The church was designed by Guðjón Samúelsson, the same man who designed the Hallgrímskirkja, the landmark church in Reykjavik. Akureyri is about a 6-hour drive from Reykjavik but you can fly there with Air Iceland.
