Gateway to Iceland's whale-watching capital on the north coast.

Location
Húsavík, Iceland
Húsavík Airport (IATA: HZK, ICAO: BIHU) is a small domestic airport serving the town of Húsavík on the northeastern coast of Iceland. It provides air links primarily to Reykjavík, supporting both local residents and tourists visiting the area known as the whale-watching capital of Europe. The airport operates a single asphalt runway and handles relatively modest passenger volumes, catering mainly to scheduled domestic services and occasional charter flights. Its proximity to natural attractions such as Lake Mývatn, Dettifoss waterfall, and the Jökulsárgljúfur canyon makes it a useful entry point for travelers exploring northeastern Iceland. Húsavík is also notable for its connection to space tourism history, as the town has been associated with Iceland's ambitions in the space sector, though the airport itself remains a straightforward domestic facility focused on regional connectivity.
