In recent years, tourism in Iceland has become a more significant part of the economy. In the last decade, tourism has grown 11% on average each year, and around 360,000 people visited Iceland in 2004, but since then the number has increased dramatically and in 2007 the number was 485,000 and over 500,000 in 2008 as you can see in Iceland tourist map. Tourist attractions in Iceland mainly revolve around the diverse geological landscape, including glaciers, fjords, geysers, waterfalls, hot springs and lakes. Of particular note are Geysir (a geyser near Haukadalur) and Vatnajökull, the largest glacier in Iceland. The aurora borealis are also visible due to Iceland latitude, which also act as a tourist attraction. Iceland also has a rich cultural heritage based around the sagas and the Viking-influenced culture.

The total number of foreign overnight visitors to Iceland was just under half a million in 2020, a 75.8% decrease from 2019, when foreign visitors numbered around 2 million. Passengers arriving with cruise ships are counted separately and are not part of the numbers above. The total number of passengers in 2020 was about 2.300 thousand, a 99.6% decrease in passenger numbers from 2019, when they were about 549 thousand. Almost 99% of visitors to Iceland come through Keflavik Airport. The counting of departing passengers at the airport provides additional information on the composition of visitors to Iceland. In 2022, it is expected that 1.3 million tourists will visit the country, and in 2023 the number could be 1.5 million as its shown in Iceland tourist map. According to Islandsbanki, the numbers are based on the fact that Iceland is highly popular among tourists.

Due to the impact of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic on travel and tourism, the number of international visitors arriving in Iceland fell sharply in 2020 over the previous year. In 2020, roughly 486 thousand inbound tourists arrived in Iceland, whereas the number of international visitors reached approximately two million in 2019. Overall, due to the pandemic, the inbound visitor growth rate in Iceland dropped by nearly 76 percent in 2020 over 2019. As of 2020, most international travelers arrived at Keflavik airport, but the number of tourists decreased remarkably over the previous year, due to the pandemic. Keflavik airport is Iceland largest airport, southwest of its capital Reykjavik, and is nearly exclusively used for international flights. There, nearly 102 thousand visitors arrived from the United Kingdom, while travelers from the U.S. made up around 52 thousand arrivals in 2020 as its mentioned in Iceland tourist map.

Iceland, island of fire and ice, has become one of the world top travel destinations, not only with thrill-seeking adventurers, but also nature lovers looking for something different. Just 40 minutes drive from Reykjavík, the Blue Lagoon is the most iconic of geothermal spas is a must-see tourist attraction. The water from the underground hot springs reaches 37-39 degrees Celsius and is said to be highly beneficial for both health and skin. An easy 50-minute drive from Reykjavik, Strokkur Geysir (after which all geysers are named) is the most popular fountain geyser in the country and famed throughout the world as you can see in Iceland attractions map. This highly active hot spring area lies in the southwest of Iceland beside the Hvítá River and is a favorite stop along what is known as the Golden Circle.

The northern Lights, or Aurora Borealis, are among the most popular tourist attractions in Iceland. Auroras are linked to solar wind, a flow of ions radiating from the sun. These particles become ensnared in the earth magnetic field and collide with atmospheric molecules, causing bursts of energy, which appear as large circles around the poles. This spectacular natural light show is best admired in remote places and is particularly impressive at times of increased solar activity. In the south of Iceland, 180 kilometers from Reykjavik, is Landmannalaugar National Park, one of Iceland most popular tourist destinations as its shown in Iceland attractions map. The main features of this mystical landscape are the multihued rhyolite mountains, Hekla volcano, and extensive lava fields. Hiking and horse riding are popular things to do here, and hikes range from a couple of hours to several days. You can visit from June to late September, after which the road is closed. A mountain lodge (Landmannalaugar Hut) with basic facilities accommodates 75 people.

South of Landmannalaugar lies Myrdalsjökull Glacier Park as its mentioned in Iceland attractions map, which for safety reasons can only be visited during summer. Large amounts of rain soak the area, particularly in winter, when roads can be severely damaged. Maelifell volcano is the undisputed jewel-in-the-crown of this wild, rugged glacial landscape. In the south of the country, Vatnajökull National Park is a land of glaciers and magnificent ice caves, which attract adventurers from across the globe. The vast national park (one of three in Iceland) is divided into four sections and consists of Vatnajökull glacier and its surroundings. In the northern region of Vatnajökull National Park, Askja caldera and geothermal pool in the Dyngjufjöll Mountains is not one for the faint-hearted. A Reykjavik modernist icon Hallgrímskirkja, this visually striking church is one of Iceland top attractions, and when you see it, you will understand why. It is the tallest and most recognizable building in the country.
