IS – Iceland

Iceland is an island nation of northern Europe in the Atlantic Ocean between Europe and North America.

When to go
June, July and August are the hottest months, therefore advisable, however even in May and September it is not bad. Tourism is increasing in the other months of the year. In any case, contrary to what the etymology of its name (land of ice) suggests, the winters are cold, but not so rigid, thanks also to the Atlantic currents. However, the weather can change suddenly, so be careful not to be caught by surprise.
