"The cave of the Giantess" The giantess is everyone’s friend and ready to use his size and energy to help in the problems of the little ones, his friends. Her home is small and therefore she welcomes snoods that children no longer use but she uses them to decorate their homes. Her cave can be found by the marina in Gróf, where she sits for a long time by the kitchen window in her rocking chair and looks out over Keflavík and Faxaflói.

The Giantess Cave is a must-visit when in Keflavik. This is the place where the locals bring their children when they want them to stop using pacifiers. Inside the cave where the giantess sleeps there is a tree where the children hang their pacifiers as a gift to the giantess children. Be a child once again and visit the giantess cave. It's approx 300 meters from Little White Castle.

Skessuhellir (Troll Cave) in Keflavík There is a children’s story in Iceland that was written by local author, and this is where the troll sleeps. It farted and snores. One thing you may didn’t know about Icelandic people, that they believe in elves, trolls and spirits. Once you see the landscape around the country, that seems like very natural things to belive.
