Climate

The climate in Iceland is warmer than most visitors expect due to the temperate effects of the Gulf Stream coming off the Atlantic. The temperature in summer can change from 41°F (5°C) during the night to as high as 77°F (25°C) in the afternoons. The summer months (May, June, July and August) have almost continuous daylight, which decreases to three or four hours over the winter months (November, December and January). Visitors should note that the weather in Iceland can change quickly.
