Serving as a hub to Northern Iceland, Akureyri Airport (AEY) is the country’s second largest airport. Despite its smaller size compared to Keflavik International Airport, Akureyri maintains regular domestic flights and limited international flights. This makes it a perfect landing spot for those wanting to uncover the magic of the country away from overly-trodden tourist paths.
Akureyri Airport provides a range of car rental services right at the airport's exit. Well-known brands such as Hertz, Europcar, and Budget are available. Renting a car at AEY is the ideal way to begin your exciting exploration of Northern Iceland.
Given the often-rugged terrain of Iceland, 4x4 vehicles are highly recommended, especially during the winter months. However, for leisurely drives around town, a standard or economy car will suffice.
Upon leaving the airport, hit Route 1 (Ring Road), which encircles the entire country. From here, you can drive to any corner of this enchanting land. The downtown area is just a short 3km drive south from the airport, where you can find an array of restaurants, hotels, and attractions.
As the unofficial capital of Northern Iceland, Akureyri City serves as a centre for art and culture. Don't miss the Akureyri Art Museum and the Akureyri Botanical Gardens!
Húsavík, known as the "Whale Watching Capital of Iceland," is just an hour's drive from Akureyri, while the unforgettable landscapes of Lake Mývatn are only 90 km away.
The weather in Akureyri can be quite unpredictable, typical for Iceland. Summers are relatively warm, averaging 15°C, while winters can be cold, with averages around -1°C. Always prepare for sudden weather changes when planning trips and drives.
Remember, your adventure in Northern Iceland starts the moment you hit the road from Akureyri Airport. Enjoy the drive and the majestic landscapes this often-overlooked region of Iceland offers.
