THE PERFECT DAY AT Reynisfjara Beach



Iceland's temperature rarely exceeds 15 degrees Celsius, so don't expect a full beach day here. However, Iceland is still an amazing place to visit, particularly in the summer months from mid-July to August, when the climate is mild and there is less rain and cloud cover. June is also a unique experience with its 24-hour daylight. To explore Reynisfjara beach with fewer people around, we recommend arriving early in the morning before 10am. Due to the dramatic and natural surroundings, it's important to read safety signs about waves and tides.
