Baccalá Bar

Baccalá bar is a restaurant in Hauganes on the west bank of Eyjafjordur bay, only 25 km from Akureyri and 12 km from Dalvík. Inside the beautifully decorated Restaurant and on the porch, shaped like a Viking ship which has the most magnificent view of the Eyjafjordur bay, you’ll find a selection of great icelandic dishes for the whole family. A restaurant that has become very popular among locals and travelers alike!

Baccalá bar is run by Ektafiskur, a bacalao producer since 1940. Ektafiskur is a pioneer in producing ready made dehydrated bacalao for icelandic kitchens and is widely available in restaurants in southern Europe as well. The restaurant serves fresh fish from the bay as well as their own produce; the renowned Ektafiskur bacalao salted codfish. One of the most popular dishes is the "Captains favourite" and "Bacalao fish and fries". On the menu you’ll also find burgers and pizza and a great selection of cocktails.

What is available

Hauganes Hot tubs

The black beach in the small village Hauganes in North Iceland has been the playground for kids in the area for a long time. It happens to be the only accessible sandy-beach in North Iceland that faces the sun in the south. Because it is very shallow far out, the black sand heats the ocean on sunny days so the Atlantic ocean even feels comfortable. A few years back we set up a couple of hot tubs on the beach that use the access geothermal water from the village and it truly is a magical place to relax whether on sunny days in June or cold winter days, listening to the ocean and the birds and enjoying the magnificent ocean and mountain view.

There are changing facilities and a shower close by, the WC is at the camping area only a short distance from the beach.

The hot tub area is open from 9-20 every day and automatically cool down after 8pm so after that it is not permitted to use them. Admission fee is ISK 1.000,- per person, 500ISK for kids 12 and under. Pay at Baccalá bar.

Please contact us at Baccalá bar via phone, 620 1035 if there are any questions. The area is under surveillance but each person is there on his/her own responsibility. Thank you for helping us keeping it clean!
