Visit Between September and April: The best time to see the Northern Lights is from late September to mid-April, especially during the darkest months.
Choose Dark, Remote Locations: Head away from city lights to areas like Thingvellir National Park or North Iceland for the clearest views.
Stay in Glass Igloos or Cabins: Book a glass-roofed cabin or igloo for a cozy, comfortable view of the aurora from your bed.
Join a Guided Tour: Take a guided tour with local experts to reach prime viewing spots and learn how to photograph the auroras.
Monitor the Aurora Forecast: Use apps or check the Icelandic Met Office for real-time updates on solar activity and clear skies.
Relax in Iceland’s Hot Springs: Soak in geothermal pools like the Blue Lagoon while watching the Northern Lights overhead.
Be Patient and Prepared: The auroras are unpredictable, so dress warmly, bring snacks, and wait for the perfect moment.
