Iceland in $410s-$430s RT

Why visit Iceland in late summer?

It's a fair question—striking landscapes and hidden waterfalls are year-round phenomena, after all. But take advantage of these dates, and you'll land right in the middle of peak season for Iceland's most adorable residents.

Every year between May and September, about 8-10 million puffins (60% of the global population!) return to their Icelandic breeding grounds from all over the Atlantic. And nothing will strike envy in your frenemies like a social feed full of puffin pics, trust us.

If you arrive in late August or very early September, you might even get to see a special Icelandic tradition :-)
