"On a boardwalk by the harbour’s mouth, the Reykjavik Maritime Museum is the piece de resistance of the Reykjavik museums. Occupying a former fish freezing factory, the museum stories the relationship between the Icelandic people and the sea. With a long seafaring history, Reykjavik’s growth to a global capital is, in part, thanks to its fishing industry, and the museum's Fish & Folk exhibit tells this story." - The MICHELIN Guide Nordic Editorial Team
