Vík í Mýrdal

Vík ( Icelandic pronunciation: [ˈviːk] ), known as Vík í Mýrdal ([ˈviːk iː ˈmirˌtaːl̥], lit. 'Vík in Mire Dale') in full, is the southernmost village in Iceland. It is located on the main ring road around the island, and is around 180 km (110 mi) southeast of Reykjavík by road.

Despite its small size (750 inhabitants in Mýrdalshreppur as of January 2021) it is the largest settlement for some 70 km (43 mi) around and is an important staging post. It is an important service center for both inhabitants and visitors to the coastal strip between Skógar and the west edge of the Mýrdalssandur glacial outwash plain.
