While Iceland is a year-round vacation destination, it’s important to keep in mind that the best times to visit will depend on your interests, activities and sights you want to see.
June, July, and August: Iceland is most visited in the summer for the midnight sun and warm weather. It’s also a perfect time to go whale-watching and hiking when all the trails are open.
December, January, and February: Most tourists come to Iceland at this time of year to view the northern lights and take part in celebrations like the Reykjavik Winter Lights Festival.
March, April, and May: Snow begins to melt during the spring, exposing Iceland’s breathtaking landscape. You can play golf, join a Puffin Tour, and enjoy festivals like Eve Fanfest.
