The Northern Lights
Iceland is one of the best places in the world to witness the Northern Lights, or Aurora Borealis, a natural light display that illuminates the night sky with vibrant hues of green, pink, and purple. The lights are most visible during the winter months, especially in the dark, clear skies of Iceland's countryside away from the light pollution of cities. The phenomenon is caused by solar winds interacting with the Earth's magnetic field. Popular spots for viewing the Northern Lights in Iceland include Thingvellir National Park, Jokulsarlon Glacier Lagoon, and the area around Lake Myvatn.
Why Visit?
Seeing the Northern Lights in Iceland is a truly magical experience. The country’s remote, rugged landscapes provide an ideal backdrop for witnessing this breathtaking natural phenomenon. Visitors can also enjoy Iceland's geothermal spas, such as the Blue Lagoon, after a night of aurora viewing.

The Giant's Causeway
Situated along the Antrim Coast of Northern Ireland, the Giant's Causeway is a UNESCO World Heritage site famous for its 40,000 interlocking basalt columns. These columns were formed by volcanic activity millions of years ago and create a stunning natural walkway along the coast. Local legend attributes the formation to the giant Fionn mac Cumhaill, adding a layer of myth to the site’s geological significance. The dramatic coastal views, combined with the unique rock formations, make this an essential stop for nature lovers.
Why Visit?
The Giant’s Causeway offers a rare opportunity to walk on natural stone formations that have been shaped by millions of years of geological processes. It’s a fascinating blend of natural wonder and myth, perfect for those interested in both history and geology.
