South Iceland

South Iceland is the area where many of the island’s attractions are concentrated. The Golden Circle, Geysir, beautiful waterfalls, glaciers, black beaches, volcanoes ….

This is also the part of Iceland where you feel most like “suburbs of Reykjavik” and close to civilization. You often drive through smaller and larger towns, passing a gas station or store several times a day.

Unfortunately – especially in summer – it is also here that Iceland’s tourist success is felt the most. Tourists from every corner of the globe transported in big buses from one beautiful place to another is also a feature of southern Iceland (in season).

And yet there are also places here that are beautiful, yet quiet, peaceful and largely hidden. If you are willing to give southern Iceland your attention, she will repay you a hundredfold.
