The Capital of the North
🏠🇮🇸🏠
Akureyri is Iceland‘s second largest city or rather town. Located only 96 kilometers (60 mi) away from the Arctic Circle. The town boasts some of the finest timber buildings in the country, beautifully restored to their original glory.
The northerly town takes great pride in its reputation as a center of education, culture and services in Eyjafjordur Fjord and rightly so.
Let us help you include Akureyri in you projects

New old houses = New Town Centre!
🏘️🇮🇸🏠
We visit one of the main towns of South Iceland; Selfoss.
In Selfoss the past connects with the present in unique way. Thirty-five historic buildings that had been fire damaged or had fallen into disrepair now have a new life. The locals reconstructed the buildings to serve as a new beautiful cultural center in the downtown area.
Do you love the architecture like us?

Let’s go to the beach!
🏖️🇮🇸🏔️
Iceland offers a different beach vibe. Just like with the nature in general, the Country has varied and awe inspiring beaches. Mostly one can expect the black sand variety made from lava, although many iconic seaside areas sport the lighter sand made from seashells.

This family run wonder is an excellent addition to the great and delicious options South Iceland has to offer.

Have you visited this iconic landmark?
🇮🇸
Visible from almost any point in the city, Hallgrimskirkja Church sits at the top of Skolavordustigur Street, the central art and design shopping street in the capital.
Completed in 1986, the concrete structure took over 40 years to build. The tower was renovated in 2009. The soaring modernist church’s design resembles the basalt lava flows found in Iceland‘s natural landscape, especially the basalt columns around Svartifoss waterfall. The architect Gudjon Samuelsson designed the church in 1937. Samuelsson often used Icelandic nature as inspiration.

A group of 15 beautiful islands situated off the south coast of Iceland
🏔️🇮🇸🌊
Vestmannaeyjar or Westman Islands are a great detour for anyone traveling along the South Coast.
The beautiful islands have magnificent ocean cliffs, which are home to thousands of playful puffins, along with guillemot, gannet, kittiwake and Iceland gull.
The puffin is the most plentiful species and the symbol of the islands.

Have you ever been to the Highlands of Iceland?
🏔️🇮🇸🏔️
Here, nature is still at its rawest, with glaciers, deserts of black sand, barren glacial moraine, steaming hot springs, active and spent volcanoes and strange oases of vegetation. A visit to this other-worldly place is one you will never forget.

Iceland’s South Coast is a true natural beauty with numerous attractions along its coastline.
The sheer force of nature carved one of the outlet glaciers from Vatnajokull ice cap, Iceland’s largest and Europe’s most voluminous glacier. It also formed Jokulsarlon and the Diamond Beach. The beach’s black-velvet-textured sand is scattered with big and small blocks of ice.

Winter Þingvellir
The viewing point at Þingvellir National Park has a different kind of magic depending on the season
❄🌞❄
At Almannagja fault on the west side of the plain, you can see the easternmost edge of the North American tectonic plate. It is normally submerged in the Atlantic Ocean. On the east side at the Heidargja Gorge, you are at the westernmost edge of the Eurasian plate. You can literally walk between two continents when you are in Thingvellir. You can learn much more about Thingvellir’s geology at the national park’s visitor center.

❄️🇮🇸🧊
Iceland’s south coast boasts the constantly changing Jokulsarlon glacial lagoon, where blue, white, turquoise and black streaked icebergs shift and creak about in an icy dance. The icebergs are 1.000-year-old chunks of the retreating Oraefajokull glacier that have broken off and are floating out to sea.
