Reykjavik by boat
Several cruise liners stop in Reykjavík each summer, mostly arriving in Sundahöfn which is some distance away from the city centre. Cruise Iceland is a website run by several companies that service cruise liners in the country, they have a list of companies that sail to Iceland: .
Reykjavík itself is not served by any ferries, but if you have an abundance of time it is possible to take the Smyril Line (a cruise company based out of the Faroe Islands) from Hanstholm or Esbjerg to Seyðisfjörður (a small town on the east of Iceland), via Tórshavn. This service is on the expensive side, and puts you on the other side of the country. However, it offers the possibility of bringing a car, which can be one of the best ways to travel around Iceland. If you take the ferry and drive from Seyðisfjörður to Reykjavík, you should plan to spend the night somewhere along the way.
Of course, if you have a boat capable of crossing the Atlantic it is possible to sail Reykjavík. Check with the port authority, the United Ports of Faxaflói , to find out about harbour options.
