Summer and winter solstices in Iceland. The further north or south you go on the planet, the more effect there is by the summer and winter solstices. Icelandâs longest day of the year, the summer solstice, is around the 21st of June. On that day the sun sets just after midnight and rises again just before 3am, in ReykjavÃ­k.
The official Aurora season in Iceland is from October till March but like with so many other things that have to do with Icelandic nature itâs not something you can say with any certainty. For example, the first Northern Lights of the season in ReykjavÃ­k this year were seen around the middle of August. The ideal conditions to see them are when itâs cold and dark outside and the Aurora activity is high. The cold per se is not an factor but the sky has to be clear which it usually is on very cold nights.
