As for activities with-in walking distance from our Harbor Apartment we suggest the following amongst other things:
The beautiful Catholic Cathedral at Landakot is just up the street from our location.
The Old Cathedral by the city square, Austurvöllur, is about 5 minutes away with the Parliament building right next to it.
Hallgrímskirkja church, is a wonderful Lutheran cathedral with an observation floor at the top of its tower and houses the largest organ in the country, a ca 15 minute walk.
Perlan (Pearl) sits on the cities hot water tanks and has an outdoor observation deck, 360 degrees (another 15 minute walk from Hallgrímskirkja, 30 minutes from apartment, but with bus services).
The new Harpa Concert and Conference Center, home of the Iceland Symphony Orchestra is 3 minutes away, a magnificent architecture. Here you find a list of concerts, shows and other activities https://en.harpa.is/events/
A visit to a Reykjavík swimming pool is a must with its geothermal hot water and sit-in pools with up to 42+ Celcius. Our neighborhood pool is the Vesturbæjarlaug near by, 10 minutes by foot and there is a pool in just about every neighbourhood in Reykjavík.
