Every summer, Iceland becomes a haven for Atlantic Puffins, with millions of these charming seabirds flocking to coastal cliffs and offshore islands to breed. With so many incredible locations across the country to spot them, it can be hard to know where to go - but if you're in Reykjavík, you're already in one of the very best places to see puffins in Iceland.

Fishing has been at the heart of Iceland’s culture and economy for over a thousand years. From the first settlers casting lines from open boats to today’s high tech, sustainably managed fisheries, the sea has always provided for the people of Iceland. But it’s not just about food - it’s about survival, identity, and the traditions that shaped the country into what it is today.

The Northern Lights, or Aurora Borealis, are some of the most extraordinary natural phenomena on Earth. They occur when charged particles from the sun are carried by solar winds and collide with Earth’s magnetic field. These particles are drawn toward the magnetic poles, where they interact with gases in the atmosphere (mainly oxygen and nitrogen) producing light in various colours.
