Keflavik is also famous for the fact that in the 1970s it was called the "city of musicians" or "beatel-city". And also now musicians from all over the world gather in Keflavik. It is famous for drifting icebergs, ice caves, beautiful geysers. In summer, you can take the excursions for a bunch of killer whales, humpback whales and dolphins, as well as visit the festival of lights. In this city, you discover Iceland on the new side, with its riddles and fairy tales, with trolls and elves.

It is worth visiting the Duushus museum, which has an interesting exhibition about the influence of the NATO base on the inhabitants of Keflavik. For 55 years, the NATO base defended the island from a possible Russian invasion, but at the end of the Cold War, the American contingent began to leave the base, completing this process in 2006. The exhibition shows the things that Americans left at the base, including some uniforms that were left in the laundry. There is a section of the US military food base and the layout of the officer's apartment. The exhibition is regularly visited by Icelanders to understand how America influenced their culture.
