    We started off by passing by the coastline of Reykjavík and viewed the Imagine Peace Tower while we waited for the lights to come out! Soon enough, there were very faint northern lights on the top of Esja that only got stronger and stronger!

    Tonight we had completely clear skies and as soon as we left the city lights behind us, we saw our first northern lights! They were shining bright and stretched out over the sea. As we were gazing at the auroras, we also saw a few meteors shooting by!

    We had barely left the harbour when we could make out a big band of northern lights across the sky. They changed rapidly and eventually grew even bigger. Adding to the magic tonight was a meteor shower, allowing the few of us to make out some shooting stars!

    We sailed through thick fog that soon cleared to reveal starry skies and a breathtaking display of northern lights. The auroras began faintly before growing stronger, filling the sky with vivid greens and purples that reflected beautifully on the ocean.

    Right when we left the dock, we started to see northern lights between the clouds. Half way through the tour, we had to head back and change boats, but when we got back out there we were rewarded with spectacular auroras in very vibrant colours.

    With a forecasted Kp index of 4/9, our hopes were very high. We saw the beautiful Imagine Peace Tower, Harpa Concert Hall and Hallgrímskirkja church, but unfortunately the auroras were a no-show, so we of course issued complimentary tickets.
