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

On the coast of Reykir is Glerhallavík, located at the foot of Tindastóll mountain. It was previously an area with a lot of chalcedony—white quartz stones—which were polished by the coastal waves, but now the stones have mostly disappeared because people have collected them, despite this being prohibited. In nearby Sandfell, there used to be an Iceland spar mine.

According to Grettis saga, there was a church at Reykir, but no other source mentions it.
