This live camera looks out over Hafnarfjordur, the harbour town just south of Reykjavik on Iceland's Reykjanes peninsula. It is useful for seeing the shoreline and light over the bay as it changes through the day. The weather and local time blocks below the player update with the camera.

A harbour town by the lava

Hafnarfjordur grew around a sheltered inlet and has long been a fishing and shipping port. The town sits on a coast shaped by old lava fields, and many residents are proud of its elf lore and rocky landscape. Its harbour, painted houses and nearby cliffs give it a character quite different from the capital next door.

What to watch and when

Depending on the view, you may see boats moving in and out, the water changing colour with the tide, and the sky shifting from grey to clear. Icelandic light is strongest in the long summer evenings and in the low, sharp light of winter mornings. Weather in the area can change quickly, so a brief check of the live feed often tells you more than a forecast.

Climate and getting around

Winters are mild for the latitude but windy and wet, while summers are cool and bright, rarely warm. Hafnarfjordur is about a short drive from central Reykjavik, and four other cameras in the region show the capital from different angles. Plan for layers of clothing whatever the season.
