What to wear in Reykjavik?

Some high-end bars and clubs in Reykjavik might have slightly more dressy expectations, especially on weekends, but it's generally casual compared to many other countries.

What should I wear to the Northern Lights in Iceland?

We recommend focusing on a waterproof outer layer instead. Hats, gloves, and a warm hat are also necessary for protection against the cold, but make sure they don't absorb too much moisture. An ideal time to see the Northern Lights, winter is naturally the coldest season in Iceland.

Do you need a swimsuit in Iceland?

Choose whatever swimwear you feel the most comfortable in, whether it's a traditional one-piece swimsuit, a bikini, swim trunks, or board shorts. You won't need flip-flops or waterproof sandals in Iceland's pools or hot springs, but you can bring them along if they make you feel more comfortable.
