Reykir is the outermost abandoned farm in the Reykjaströnd district of Skagafjörður, Iceland. A narrow peninsula, called Reykjadiskur, extends northward from the farm. The location is also home to a warm spring mentioned in the sagas that is now a tourist destination and Glerhallavík cove, an area rich in chalcedony.
