Reykjanes is a small
headland on the southwestern tip of
Reykjanesskagi. The Reykjanes peninsula is a geothermal wonder, where lighthouses outnumber villages. Besides hosting the Keflavík International Airport and, just a few minutes away, the spectacular Blue Lagoon, the Reykjanes peninsula is a destination in its own right. The Reykjanes peninsula has several high-temperature geothermal areas, three of which have been harnessed to generate electricity.
