This is the main import/export port and fishing harbour for deep-sea trawlers. It is accessible to approximately 130-140 m long vessels with a draught of up to 7.5 m / 9.0 m. Adjacent to the harbour is an approx. 7,000 square meters wharf area for storing containers and a new 20,000 square meters wharf area is under construction. PKN has access to approx. 3,000 square meters of warehouses, cooling- and freezing-stores and an ice factory in the harbour area. The Suðurnes Fishmarket is located there, with a fishmarket floor of 1,700 square meters. The Njarðvík Shipbuilding corp., which runs one of the biggest slipway and ship-yards in Iceland, is also located there. The Suðurnes Stevedoring Service has warehouses, including a bonded warehouse and a repair workshop, in the port area.

The PKN Keflavík ports are used mainly for the handling of fish and ships of large draught. The main harbour is accessible to 150 m long vessels with a draught of up to 14 m. The pilots are located in the harbour office in Keflavík and also at the PKN tug and pilot-boat service. The harbour radio is channel 12, which the pilots and use as well as the harbour workers.

All the PKN ports are well equipped with electricity and fresh water. The local oil distributing companies provide gas oil and IFO 30.

In addition to the Keflavík main harbour, PKN also operates a special newly-built harbour in Keflavík for smaller fishing boats, sports boats and yachts.

This port was originally developed for oil imports to the NATO Base in Keflavík. An additional quay of 150 m with a depth of 10 m has been built in the Helguvík harbour, making it easily accessible to 200-m-long vessels. The quay was built along the shore and has a generous wharf area behind it. These new facilities provide Helguvík port with increased service opportunities for industrial freighters and oil vessels. Industrial and service facilities construction on the site is in progress.
