Iceland The Most Romantic Honeymoon Destination

**Collaborative post**

Going to Iceland for your honeymoon is a beautiful choice, with its array of nature, city and gorgeous nature you can pop around and choose how you’d like to spend the day. That said, visiting during a time of year when the weather is pretty mild so you can see more and comfortably travel between different places is worth it! July and August are generally busier, with the shoulder seasons of May and June as well as September and October. If you wanted to rent a car in Iceland, you can pop around as you’d like to and explore more of those off-the-beaten-path destinations. Fly into Reykjavik, the capital, and book your stay somewhere magical, like the Lava Suite at Blue Lagoon Iceland for example.

Another very popular option is to hire a campervan while you are in Iceland; this is a great means of travel throughout the country, especially for honeymooners or couples. Cozy Campers have a wide selection of quality, sleek, hand-designed campervans that are comfortable and well-equipped with all the essentials to enjoy your Icelandic vacation to the fullest, and it means you have far more freedom to travel around and see far more places. Hiring a campervan can be a cheaper way to see a new country and is far less restrictive. You won’t need to worry about car hire or pre-booking your hotels meaning you could visit more sights during your holiday, and there is no need to keep packing and repacking your cases if you are planning to travel around during your trip.

Here are some of the best things to do and see while on your honeymoon:

Explore the ring road

If you want to explore the outskirts and perimeter of Iceland, drive along the Ring Road. You’ll want to rent a car and set yourself up with a hotspot that will keep you connected, and then give yourself the flexibility to explore and stop along the way. You can see waterfalls and glaciers, stop to hike along the way, and as you come across charming villages, you can stop for coffee and meals and stay as you’d like.

Lake Myvatn

Located in north Iceland you’ll find Lake Myvatn, a beautiful spot to stop along to get in the water and enjoy the views. It is also a popular place to stop for bird watching. You can stop here while exploring the Ring Road, fly in directly, or even go on a tour here to explore. There are natural baths with sulfur to bathe and relax in, and you can also hike in the surrounding areas.

Climb a glacier

The glaciers in Iceland draw in a number of visitors alone, with 11% of the land area in Iceland covered by ice caps. Some of the most popular glaciers to visit are: Svínafellsjökull, Falljökull, Breiðamerkurjökull, Mýrdalsjökull, and Langjökull.

See the inside of a volcano

Seeing the inside of a volcano is an experience that you can’t get in many places around the world, and with trails and tours that take you up close, it will help create the backdrop for memories that you will remember forever. The most recent eruption happened at Fagradalasfjall, a currently active volcano.

Go wildlife watching

Wildlife watching in Iceland is up close and an immersive experience, particularly due to how off the map you can get in so many destinations around Iceland. You can see humpbacks, all sorts of birds, whales, and so much more. Go on a hike, a boat tour, or a dedicated wildlife tour to really take it all in.

Romantic dinner in Reykjavik

While Reykvakik is the hub for the main airport in Iceland, it is also a city that is worth stopping to spend some time in as well. It has history, restaurants and nightlife, while also being accessible to beautiful nature destinations just outside of the city.
