Kolaportið is an indoor Flea Market that is open during the weekend between 11:00 and 17:00 and occasionally on public holidays. It’s down by the Bæjarins Beztu hot dog stand and next to the Reykjavík Art Museum. It’s not flashy or particularly noteworthy from the outside so just follow the stream of people if you are not sure where to go in.
Stalls sell vintage clothing, used books, dvds, knick knacks and antiques, as well as toys, woolen goods and more.
Kolaportid is a great place to buy strange Icelandic delicasies such as dried fish and fermented shark, but alsot the freshest liqorice you have ever tasted and freshly baked „kleinur“. Most vendors only accept cash, there is an ATM located inside the market but the line can be quite long, so it is reccommended to get out cash in advance
So if you are looking for something to do on a lazy weekend afternoon, Kolaportið is the place to be.
