Discover Reykjanes

Discover the lunar landscape of the Reykjanes Peninsula with its barren and rugged stretch of lava fields and coarse black sandy beaches. Listen to the various calls of sea birds while watching ocean tides splash along the coast. Witness the Aurora Borealis, also called the Northern Lights, dancing in the heavens and experience the splendor of the mid-night sun as it provides you with some of the most surreal sunsets you will ever see. Experience the geothermal wonders of hot springs and steam vents and where you can safely look down and see fresh magma pulsating right near your feet. Indulge your senses in the well renowned Blue Lagoon, where you can bathe luxuriously outside in the crisp clean air while immersed in warm, natural, and self-renewable geothermal water. 

The Reykjanes Peninsula boasts some of Iceland´s top cultural and recreational attractions. For example, the Viking Exhibit, which is home to an exact replica of a 9th century Viking ship named Icelander and created in cooperation with the Smithsonian Institution. 
Historical Viking and modern Icelandic culture combined with Mother Nature´s beauty are found in this South-Western region of Iceland where all this and more is just minutes away from the Keflavik International Airport.
