The Grillmarket restaurant in Reykjavík
Check out the mouth-watering Grillmarket in central Reykjavík. Best place to go with a varied group of people, as they do great steaks, fish, salads and burgers. The Grillmarket has been around since the summer of 2011 and has earned its place as one of the most popular restaurants in Reykjavík, both among locals and foreigners. Tucked behind shops right in the middle of downtown Reykjavík but unseen from the bustling Austurstræti, the second you walk in you feel like you’ve stumbled onto a hidden secret. The décor is made up of natural elements such as lava, fish scales, column basalt and
Tungulending at the end of the road from Húsavík
What will you find at the end of the road? If the road you take is number 85 heading north from Húsavík, then you can take a left turn towards Tungulending - or Tongue Landing - and find one of Iceland's few fossil beaches. Tungulending has picturesque views over Skjálfandi bay and is located only 12 km north of Húsavík, the whale watching capital of north Iceland. Tungulending sits at Tjörnes peninsula. If you are driving the road number 85 heading north, you will see a sign saying 'Tungulending', and then you can either leave your car and walk down the gravel road, or during summertime yo
The 'Horny' Mountains of East Iceland: Vestrahorn, Brunnhorn, Eystrahorn
Have you ever been to east Iceland and admired its mountains? Have you ever heard of Iceland's 'Batman Mountain'? Some of my favourite natural attractions in Iceland are the spiky, 'horny' mountains of east Iceland around Hvalnes peninsula: Vestrahorn, Brunnhorn and Eystrahorn. If you're driving along the south coast of Iceland then you pass a few impressive glaciers, but you'll also mainly be driving along some long flat plains of Mýrdalssandur (with the occasional mountain popping up from nowhere, such as Hjörleifshöfði). The glaciers are obviously covered with thick ice and snow, making
Von Mathús Gastropub in Hafnarfjörður
Looking for a restaurant with some tasty food and refreshing drinks outside of the busy Reykjavík city centre? Check out the lively Von Mathús gastropub if you're heading through Hafnarfjörður! If you're staying in Hafnarfjörður and looking for good food and a fun atmosphere, then there's no need to travel all the way to Reykjavík in search of a restaurant since you can simply head to the gastropub Von Mathús in the centre of Hafnarfjörður. Or if you are staying in Reykjavík and want to explore somewhere new, then hop on a bus or sit down behind the steering wheel of a rental car and head t
Kopar Seafood Restaurant in Reykjavík
I'm a big foodie and I've decided to start reviewing the restaurants in Reykjavík, starting with the oh-so-delicious Kopar restaurant by the Reykjavík harbour. On a cold winter night in January I had a table booked at Kopar restaurant, a place I had never been to before but heard great things about. After battling a bit of a snowstorm whilst walking there I was really happy from the moment I stepped into Kopar and was greeted by the warmth and a friendly waiter, Jónmundur, that became our waiter for the rest of the evening.

Guide to Iceland's Population
People often laugh at how small the Icelandic population is - but the Icelandic population is rapidly growing. How Many People Live in Iceland? At the time of writing (at 3pm on the 31st of December 2016) the human population of Iceland is only a mere 332,992 people. Just under 333,000 people. That doesn't sound like a lot. In fact, Guide to Iceland's facebook page has just outnumbered the Icelandic population in facebook likes, with 333,117 likes as of now - not a bad way to end the year! :) But although 332,992 people doesn't sound like much in population terms, Iceland's population is
Things to do during STORMS in Iceland!
'Tis the season... for stormy weather in Iceland. Winter season in Iceland can be absolutely stunning, with cool and crisp sunny days, gorgeous northern light displays at night or fluffy soft snow gently enveloping everything in a white blanket. ... And on other days there are crazy snowstorms. Or regular storms (not including snow). The option of having snow, or rain, included in the storm depends on how bad of a mood the weather gods are in.
