ICELAND
Siglufjordur
There is no better destination for exploring dynamic
landscapes and creating lasting memories.
Iceland is slightly smaller than Kentucky, with a temperate
climate, and experiences mild, windy winters and damp, cool
summers due to the North Atlantic Current. The geography
is mostly plateau interspersed with mountain peaks, ice
fields, and a coast deeply indented by bays and fjords.
