If you give yourself the gift of an Icelandic cruise, you will find a destination where the allure of nature's wonders comes together in harmony to captivate and astound visitors. Iceland is located on the geologically dynamic boundary between North America and Europe. This part of the world features striking contrasts in terms of its climate, topography, and culture. Because of that, Iceland is home to some of the world's most breathtaking natural scenery.
Iceland
More than 4,800 kilometers long, the rugged coastline of Iceland meets many seas. The Greenland Sea is on the north; the Norwegian Sea is on the east; and the Atlantic Ocean is on the south and west. The Denmark Strait, on the northwest coast, separates Iceland from Greenland by approximately 320 kilometers. Eleven percent of the landmass of the country is covered in glacial ice, and the remainder of the landmass is surrounded by water. And there are also roughly 130 volcanoes in Iceland. It is not without reason that this region is referred to as the "country of fire and ice."
Because of all the above, Iceland is a popular tourist destination. When you cruise to Iceland, you may witness the breathtaking Northern Lights, relax in a natural hot spring, and travel through breathtaking landscapes. Therefore, Iceland's unique mosaic of natural characteristics is favorable for all kinds of activities. For instance, it includes enormous glaciers, vertiginous fjords, stunning geysers, and thermal resorts with superb facilities.
On an Iceland cruise, you will definitely visit the charming capital of Iceland, Reykjavik. This was the site of the first homestead on the island and is now a vibrant metropolis that is handsome in appearance and cosmopolitan in spirit. Akureyri, located on the north-central coast, is another large population center in Iceland.
