Visiting Reykjavik

The world's northernmost capital, a compact, colourful city on the sea, and the base for the Golden Circle, the south coast's waterfalls and the Blue Lagoon.

Best time to visit: June to August for the mildest weather and very long days, with near-midnight sun in June. September to March brings dark nights for the northern lights, but short days and frequent storms.

Landmarks & highlights

  • Hallgrímskirkja

    The city's landmark church, with a tower that looks out over the rooftops.

  • Harpa

    A concert hall on the harbour with a glass façade inspired by basalt columns.

  • Sun Voyager

    A steel sculpture of a Viking-style ship on the seafront path.

  • Golden Circle

    A day route to Þingvellir National Park, the Geysir area and Gullfoss waterfall.

Local tip: Check the aurora forecast and the cloud cover before heading out — clear skies matter as much as solar activity.

Getting around: The centre is small and walkable; tours or a rental car are the usual way to reach sights outside the city.

Good to know: Wind is the bigger factor than temperature in Iceland; check road and weather warnings (road.is, vedur.is) before driving in winter.
