The exhibition provides informative and attractive displays that have the capacity to raise awareness about cetaceans and their environment. The scientific component includes an introduction to the museum’s research, which has been expanding since 2001 and now includes international collaborations and publications. The museum was acknowledged as an educational facility by the Icelandic Ministry of Education in 2007.

If you do whale watching tour, which I highly recommend, then you will get 10-20% discount for this museum and some restaurants. This is worth it. They have free filter coffee inside.

The Myvatn nature Baths are set in an outdoor area with hot springs contained in naturally landscaped areas where one can enjoy the baths and the scenery. They are very reasonable priced compared to the Blue Lagoon, not in a man made setting and much less crowded. They include changing rooms, showers, sauna, geothermal pools and a nice restaurant with a viewing area to eat and relax upstairs with a good view of the pools.
