Mountains reflected in a perfectly calm lake at dusk

Overview

The Westfjords are the least visited corner of Iceland, and in midsummer they are the most beautiful. The light lingers through the night over fjords that cut deep into the land.

We fly you there to save the long drive, then spend the week on the water, on the cliffs and at the Fjord House.

Season: Best mid-June to late July for the longest light. See dates & prices.

Regions: The Westfjords, Snæfellsnes Peninsula, Reykjavík
