Through the Eyes of a Guest

We love sharing moments from our beautiful island Grímsey through the eyes of our visitors 💙 This stunning photo was sent to us by @davidgibbonphotography, a regular guest in Grímsey.

Captured under the midnight sun, this solitary puffin reminds us that these charming birds will soon head out to sea for the winter — usually by mid-August. So if you’re hoping to catch a glimpse of them this season, now’s the time to visit!

Thank you, David, for sharing this magical moment with us!

You can visit Grímsey by plane from Akureyri (approx. 30-minute flight) or by ferry from Dalvík (around 3 hours).
