But if you\u2019re not careful enough, it can end very badly. Especially at the beaches, one is warned against the huge waves; swimming in the sea is often forbidden in Iceland. There were already too many fatalities that underestimated the masses of water and lost their lives.   <\/p>\n<p>Even in strong winds, you should not get too close to the cliffs before you know it is too late. So take note of the warnings and be careful! <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-53ba009 gallery-spacing-custom elementor-widget elementor-widget-image-gallery\" data-id=\"53ba009\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image-gallery.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image-gallery\">\n\t\t\t<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-3831 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-full'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-slideshow=\"53ba009\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"Dynjandi\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6Mzc1NCwidXJsIjoiaHR0cHM6XC9cL2Rlc3RhcnkuY29tXC93cC1jb250ZW50XC91cGxvYWRzXC8yMDIyXC8wNFwvZHluamFuZGktMi5qcGciLCJzbGlkZXNob3ciOiI1M2JhMDA5In0%3D\" href='https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/dynjandi-2.jpg'><img width=\"1080\" height=\"1350\" src=\"https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/dynjandi-2.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"Dynjandi\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-3754\" decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/dynjandi-2.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/dynjandi-2-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/dynjandi-2-819x1024.jpg 819w, https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/dynjandi-2-768x960.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-3754'>\n\t\t\t\tDynjandi\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-slideshow=\"53ba009\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"Dettifoss\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6Mjg1MywidXJsIjoiaHR0cHM6XC9cL2Rlc3RhcnkuY29tXC93cC1jb250ZW50XC91cGxvYWRzXC8yMDIyXC8wNFwvZGV0dGlmb3NzLXNjYWxlZC5qcGciLCJzbGlkZXNob3ciOiI1M2JhMDA5In0%3D\" href='https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/dettifoss-scaled.jpg'><img width=\"2048\" height=\"2560\" src=\"https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/dettifoss-scaled.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"Dettifoss\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-2853\" decoding=\"async\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-2853'>\n\t\t\t\tDettifoss\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-slideshow=\"53ba009\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"Hai\u0301foss\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6Mjg3OSwidXJsIjoiaHR0cHM6XC9cL2Rlc3RhcnkuY29tXC93cC1jb250ZW50XC91cGxvYWRzXC8yMDIyXC8wNFwvaGFpXHUwMzAxZm9zcy1zY2FsZWQuanBnIiwic2xpZGVzaG93IjoiNTNiYTAwOSJ9\" href='https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/hai\u0301foss-scaled.jpg'><img width=\"2048\" height=\"2560\" src=\"https:\/\/destary.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/hai\u0301foss-scaled.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"Hai\u0301foss\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-2879\" decoding=\"async\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-2879'>\n\t\t\t\tHai\u0301foss\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-12858e8 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"12858e8\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-43cea9a elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"43cea9a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Admire the night<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-743d5b6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"743d5b6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Summer: In summer it is unfortunately not possible to see the northern lights, but there is still a reason to go outside at night.

The Blue Lagoon is a thermal outdoor pool near Reykjav\u00edk. The water in the thermal bath, which by the way has an area of about 5000 square meters, has a temperature of about 37 to 42 \u00b0C and contains mineral salts, silica and algae. To enter the lagoon, everyone has to take a shower; naked. However, this is nothing special in Iceland, as there are often only community showers and you have to perform this procedure at almost every thermal pool, as the Icelanders attach great importance to hygiene.    <\/p>\n<p>We decided not to visit the lagoon for the following reasons: On the one hand the prices are incredibly high (\u20ac80 per person), on the other hand the occurring materials should damage your hair very much. In addition, there are \u201crumours\u201d that the Blue Lagoon was not created naturally! A very important argument for us was also the mass of people. The lagoon is overcrowded with visitors every day; there are much more relaxing thermal pools around the island!   <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ddb8af8 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"ddb8af8\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3c84428 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"3c84428\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Prepare that you never want to leave<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-27457b7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"27457b7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Be warned: you will fall immortally in love with this country!
