About

Airport Camping in Sandgerði sits eight minutes from Keflavík International Airport, in a fishing village on the Reykjanes Peninsula's UNESCO Global Geopark. It's open all year, with showers, a washing machine, RV electricity, a playground and free Wi-Fi. Cabins can also be rented on site.

For anyone bookending a trip around a flight, the location is hard to beat: eight minutes to Keflavík Airport and about 35 to the Reykjavík area. That makes it a natural first or last stop in Iceland. Sandgerði itself is a working fishing village with one of the country's busiest harbours, and it sits inside the Reykjanes UNESCO Global Geopark. A grocery store, swimming pool, sauna, gym, museum and ATM are all within walking distance. The site stays open year-round. You'll find showers, outdoor sinks with hot and cold water, a washing machine and dryer, plus water-tank refills, waste disposal and electricity for RVs. There's a playground, free Wi-Fi, and cabins for rent if you'd rather not pitch a tent.

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