Visit Iceland in summer and you’ll really be able to make the most of your stay. Iceland’s midnight sun happens in summer which means long days, almost no darkness and spectacular sunrises. And with the long days comes warmer temperatures and the country comes alive with festivals and music. This is, as a result, the most popular time to visit so expect crowds and be sure to book your place on tours early.

Expect temperatures similar to Spring – between 0-10 degrees from September to early November.

Obviously, it goes without saying that if you want to avoid cooler temperatures in the Autumn, plan a visit around September. You may experience some snow at this time of year but as Autumn emerges, an abundance of colours explodes over the country. However, as the weather starts to cool, some tours may come to the end of their yearly run so be sure to check this in advance.

Despite the much cooler temperatures and dark days, Iceland really comes into its own in the Winter. Warm up in the natural hot springs or get cosy in Reykjavik’s cafe culture. But if nature is more your thing, when you are probably interested in Iceland’s main event – the Northern Lights. Not to mention the natural ice caves, glaciers and incredible winter landscapes.
