Weather:
Winters are very dark, which is often a good thing for visitors as you cannot see the Northern Lights unless it's extremely dark. Summers are such a contrast, virtually 24 hours of daylight.

Due to the gulf stream, the temperatures in Iceland are surprisingly mild in the winter time. The average during winter is 0° Celcius. The average during summer is 11° Celcius. Due to winds it usually feels colder in Iceland than the temperature display says.

What to wear:
As we say "you never come to Iceland for a tan“. We also say "if you don‘t like the weather in Iceland, wait 5 minutes“... you can experience all 4 seasons in a day! It is advisable to wear layers in Iceland, with a hat and gloves useful all year round.
