Bakkafjörður

Remoteness is the point at Bakkafjörður. FarNorth Campsite sits in a small fishing village on the northeast coast, with the sea on its doorstep and little around it — the kind of place you pick when you want quiet. Walking sets the pace. Trails follow the shoreline, including the route out to Digranes lighthouse, and there's a mix of easy coastal strolls and harder routes for anyone wanting to push further. Across the water, the Langanes peninsula fills the view. Facilities stay simple: toilets, a shower, and space for cooking and washing up, plus an electric-car charger. The site opens from May through October, children stay free, and you can book ahead or just drop in.

Book ahead in summer, especially near popular spots. Campsites fill up by late afternoon.
