Kolaportið fleamarket, Reykjavik

Kolaportið fleamarket is the biggest fleamarket in Iceland and well worth a wander if you are in Reykjavik over the weekend. Close to the downtown harbour and free to enter, this market is cheap and cheerful. Unearth some gems - but be early and bring cash.

Be sure to check out the food section where you can find some truly unusual delicacies such as purified shark or whale meat - smile nicely and you might get a taste test!
