Bridge Between ContinentsYour journey begins with a visit to the Bridge Between Continents, where you’ll stand atop the dividing plates of North America and Eurasia. Iceland is the only place on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge that rises above water, allowing you to walk between two continents at this remarkable site.
-
Reykjanes LighthouseNext, you’ll head to Reykjanes Lighthouse, built in 1878 and rebuilt in 1907 due to erosion. Located on dramatic sea cliffs formed by 19th-century lava flows, the lighthouse offers stunning views of the ocean and rugged coastline.
-
Gunnuhver Hot SpringsFrom there, you’ll venture to Gunnuhver Hot Springs, one of Iceland’s largest geothermal areas. Marvel at bubbling mud pools and fumaroles while learning the intriguing myth of Gunnuhver, a haunted site once used by early settlers who harnessed geothermal energy for cooking and bathing.
-
BrimketillA short drive will then take you to Brimketill Sea Pools, where natural lava formations create two large, spectacular rock pools along the coast. Although bathing isn’t possible due to the fierce Atlantic waves, the sight of crashing surf and the chance to spot seals swimming among kelp make this a truly breathtaking stop.

- We will pass through the once-inhabited town of Grindavík, which has become abandoned following recent eruptions that caused damage to houses and infrastructure from flowing lava.

Fagradalsfjall VolcanoContinuing your exploration, you’ll visit Fagradalsfjall Volcano Site. Get up close to the still-smoking lava fields of the 2021 eruption, where molten rock once flowed freely.

Your guide will share insights into the geology of this powerful volcano and help you find unique volcanic rocks to take home as souvenirs.
-
KrysuvikFinally, you’ll explore the Seltun Geothermal Area, known for its sulfurous smell, bubbling springs, and colorful mineral-rich hillsides.
