Húsavík is a small fishing town located in the north of Iceland. It is known for its whale watching tours, as well as its picturesque harbor and stunning views of the surrounding mountains. The town is also home to the world's first whale museum, the Húsavík Whale Museum, which offers visitors a unique insight into the history and culture of whales. Húsavík is a popular destination for tourists, offering a variety of activities such as kayaking, fishing, and hiking.

Furthermore, Húsavík is the main location of the Eurovision movie. Everyone who has not seen it: There is some truth about the Icelandic mentality in it. Maybe more than some Icelanders would admit.
