4. Reykjavik, Iceland. Reykjavik is still the most affordable and accessible place to see the Northern Lights, but itâs getting more popular. In January 2015, 9,003 Britons visited Iceland, probably because, Lights aside, thereâs plenty to fascinate about this land of geysers, volcanoes and blue ice.
When To See Them. Unfortunately, the best time to witness the Northern Lights is in the dead of winter, from 11:30 p.m. to 3:30 a.m., with peaks around 1:30 or 2:30 a.m. However, some say you can catch a brief glimpse of the Northern Lights 240 nights a year, especially during March, September and October. Your best hope is for a clear, cloudless night. Other ideal times include the equinoxes around September 22 and March 22.
