Travel Vaccinations for Iceland

This Nordic island nation is the most sparsely populated country in Europe and exhibits a number of geothermal features due to its location on the Iceland volcanic hotspot. An example of this is Blue Lagoon in Grindavík, where the waters from underground hot springs are said to have rejuvenating qualities for health and skin. There are also spectacular geysers, such as Strokkur Geysir, which ejects water to a height of 30 metres every few minutes.

Reykjavik is Iceland’s capital, and tourists can engage with nature here by setting off from the harbour, with whale watching and bird watching both available. One of the city’s landmark buildings is the Pearl Observatory, which offers impressive views over the rest of Reykjavik.

Iceland is also a country where visitors can witness the phenomenon that is the Aurora Borealis. For the best views, tours such as the Northern Lights Tour from Reykjavik take observers to rural areas which gives people the best chance of seeing this spectacular natural light show.
