All about Iceland

Thundering volcanoes, explosive geysers, fizzing hot springs, bubbling mud pools — Iceland’s landscape knows how to hold your attention. This is the Land of Ice and Fire, after all, full of vast glaciers, snow-covered sea cliffs, and subarctic lagoons where the icebergs that float by are bigger than the whales. It’s a place where Planet Earth shows off some of its most spectacular tricks. Here, you can witness sights from the Northern Lights to the midnight sun, see colonies of nesting puffins, or walk on beaches of red and black sand. Should you find yourself yearning for human company amid all this natural wonder and wilderness, look no further than the tiny towns and fishing villages that hug Iceland’s coastline, or the warm welcome of its ever-trendy capital, Reykjavík.

What are the top things to do in Iceland?

The Westfjords

This isolated and largely uninhabited region in the northwest corner of the country rewards travelers who venture off the beaten path. See Arctic foxes in their natural habitat at the Hornstrandir Nature Reserve, or nesting birds covering the cliffs at Látrabjarg. Or take in the spectacular 100-metre-high Dynjandi waterfall.

Borgarfjörður Eystri

This tiny hamlet on the east side of the island might not draw your eye, but it’s worth a visit for the extraordinary mountains of multicoloured rhyolite surrounding it. With scenery like this, it’s no wonder the place has fostered a vibrant artistic community, and the hiking is endlessly rewarding.

Kolaportið Flea Market

If you’re in Reykjavik on a weekend, make sure to check out this indoor flea market near the Old Harbour. Its stalls and inventory are a perfect reflection of this quirky city. You’ll find everything from sweets and secondhand books to vintage clothing.
