Sunshine and clear skies greeted people in the city this morning. The temperature was around 16 degrees Celcius (approximately 60 Fahreinheit) and many went to enjoy the weather in the swimming pools or meet and greet people downtown enjoying the weather.

The geothermal beach in Nauthólsvík was full of life and laughter. Children were playing on the beach and in the water and having a great Sunday.
