5 Tips For Your Westfjords Road Trip
The Westfjords are a region that tends to be overlooked by travelers in Iceland, maybe because the Ring Road doesn't pass through them, and they're really only accessible during summer. If you get the chance to explore them, however, you'll see some amazing remote landscapes, winding fjords, and ancient mountains draped with beautiful waterfalls. There really is a special mystical aura over the region! It's best to plan ahead before you start your trip to get a feel for what to expect.

Why is Reynisfjara Black Sand Beach Dangerous?
Reynisfjara is one of the most famous black sand beaches in Iceland, and for a reason! It has some stunning dark volcanic sand and dramatic basalt cliffs, which makes it a must-stop on all South Coast tours, whether you're visiting with a guide or renting a car. However, while Reynisfjara beach is beautiful, it also happens to be one of the most dangerous places in Iceland. This is because of powerful sneaker waves, which can easily pull people out to sea if they're not careful and are too cold and powerful to swim against. Thankfully, there is a warning system in place that shows you which
Celebrate Beer Day in Iceland!
In recent years, Iceland has developed quite the craft beer culture, with plenty of breweries and distilleries all over the country. We love our beer; it's the most popular drink in Iceland, but there was a time when we weren't allowed to enjoy it! In fact, throughout most of the 20th century, beer was completely banned in Iceland, and it wasn't until March 1st, 1989, that it was allowed again! Since then, the date has been celebrated as Beer Day, and we encourage you to take part with an ice-cold drink. Check out our video below to learn more about the interesting history of the day, how th
Make a Stop in Vik on the South Coast!
If you're planning to explore some of the countryside outside Reykjavik, it's likely you'll be traveling the South Coast, or at least a part of it! It's where the Seljalandsfoss and Skogafoss waterfalls are located, along with Reynisfjara black sand beach and DC-3 Plane Wreck on Solheimasandur beach. You can go on South Coast tours to see the major sights but if you can, exploring the region freely with a rental car is quite the adventure. It's such a beautiful area to explore! One location that you should take the time to visit in the area is the town of Vik. It's just a 12-minute drive fur

Pro Tips for Visiting the Sky Lagoon
