Reykjavík Maritime Museum

Really nice museum. Very quiet and lots of interesting fishing and maritime facts. We really enjoyed it especially as there was very little open in town on new year's day. This helped us stay occupied for a few hours. The ladies at the reception / welcome desk were very helpful.

Got into this museum for free with the Reykjavik City Card. Downstairs is a small temporary exhibition. Upstairs is a very cool exhibition with lots to see about maritime life and history of Iceland with lots of old equipment and artifacts. Definitely recommend a visit with the card

Very educational. It had information about both historical fishing practices and modern. I used to work on a fish processing mother-ship in the Bering Sea. Some of the videos actually gave me flashbacks that were a little disturbing! I am disabled. The museum was accessible with accessible bathrooms. It is also free for disabled persons... but you have to ask. They don't seem to offer the discount unless you ask.

Great displays regarding the history and evolution of fishing techniques, technology and the labor involved. The displays really help put the items use into perspective. Excellent sections to engage children and teens as well !!

Where can I get a refund? This museum is well set up but is not worth the price, especially with anything fun for the kids broken. And please include the visit to a/the boat in the price, excluding it from a maritime museum is ridiculous.
