Today is Sumardagurinn fyrsti, the first day of summer, an annual public holiday celebrated in Iceland since the 16th century.

One would wonder why summer is celebrated in April but in the old Norse calendar, there were only two seasons - months with short days (winter) and months with nightless days (summer). So summer started in April and lasted till October (don't we wish!).

Children looked forward to Summer Gifts much before Christmas presents took over - summer toys, light summer clothes and treats.

Today towns across the country host parades and brass bands; family and friends gather to celebrate with pönnukökur, the traditional Icelandic pancakes; and you will even find barbecues and picnics.
Sometimes it might not seem like summer but summer is just around the corner and that is enough reason to celebrate! 🎉

A detour from the Ring Road, the Westfjords are remote and unexplored.
We think it doesn't get more "offbeat" than a winter road trip through this spectacular region of Iceland.

Enjoy!

Scientists say that 2024 may bring the best auroras in 20 years.
So if the northern lights are on your bucket list then this is the year to take that trip!

From the end of August until early April, we recommend a minimum of a week if you have a fixed itinerary planned in advance.
We do, however, offer a flexible "Follow the Northern Lights" itinerary for shorter trips or those who are focused completely on the northern lights.
