Wild and wooly Northern Iceland is a part of the country most people do not get the opportunity to see. However, we think making the journey here is well worth the expedition, stopping at some outdoor swimming pools along your way. Little light pollution means this corner of Iceland is where you are most likely to see the Northern Lights. During the day there is plenty to see and do; surfing in the Arctic, snorkelling with puffins, snowmobiling and horse riding to name a little.The North has its share of aquatic grace too: Godafoss and Dettifoss waterfalls are spectacular, and the milky hue of the Myvatn geothermal baths is enough to convince anyone of its magical properties. The bays of Skjalfandi and Eyjafjordur are two of the very best whale spotting areas – speak to your travel designer about the best time of year to visit on your Iceland tour for an opportunity to see these majestic giants.Not yet sold? It is also home to our favourite Icelandic property, Deplar Farm.

Built into the fishermans marina, all rooms at Siglo hotel have wonderful views of the beautiful surrounding mountains and peaceful environment of Siglufjord.
Previously home to a heard of hardy Icelandic Sheep, Deplar Farm is the ultimate Icelandic adventure destination, with its awe-inspiring panoramic views of the Troll Peninsula, nestled at the base of snowy topped mountains in a valley that runs all the way north towards the Atlantic Ocean.
A short drive from the countries capital and you will immediately feel off the beaten track. Black sand beaches, glacier lagoons geothermal baths and ice caves are all things you can experience in this corner of the country.
Locals view the West as a land of folklore, knitting (eyes peeled for a sheep round up) and small fishing towns that litter the coastline. Hop on a boat and see if you can spot a whale or a colony of puffins.
The Icelandic capital feels more like a large fishing town rather than a bustling city, even though 60% of the country live here. The city is comfortably walkable and worth exploring if only to mix with the charming locals in our suggested local favourites.
