Experience It! The Northern Lights
Each year, during the winter months, travelers journey to Iceland and venture out into the dark to see the magical but elusive northern lights
(aurora borealis). This natural phenomenon is the product of collisions between electrically charged particles from the sun that enter the earth's
atmosphere; the results are spectacular! Streaks of colorful light appear across the sky. The colors can vary from white to pink or purple and,
most commonly, green. It is known that the best time to witness the lights in Iceland is from late September to mid-April, when the nights are
the longest. This light show is truly dazzling and worth the pursuit.
