Unusual things to do in Iceland
There are many things you can do in Iceland, not only gaze at the northern lights and bathe in a natural hot pool. Two rather unusual things to do would be sky-diving and reindeer hunting, (although those two can not be combined - so reindeer hunting while sky-diving is not possible in Iceland, at least I'm not aware of it being possible).
In spring and fall we have very lovely and brisk breezes, or even gust. Also there are endless lakes all around. So if you bring your wind surfing gear, and a wet-suit, you'll have a great time. Don't book ahead, rather listen to (or read) the weather forecast and then head out into nature. You'll surly find accommodation and nice food somewhere near.
Here is a photo of me on a lake outside my house, as I am not at all the best windsurfer I prefer to have land all around when I go windsurfing. When I'll gain more skill I'll venture to the ocean. Until then I'll just be a fresh-water-windsurfer.
