Updated ☀️ Solar eclipse & Perseids - August 12, 2026
As if the eclipse wasn't enough, the annual August Perseids meteor storm is expected to peak on the night of the 12 August - which just so happens to be the same night as the solar eclipse. Meteors should be visible in large numbers for days before and after the 12 August. By mid-August the sun is setting around 22:00 in Iceland - so it could be a fantastic stay if the clouds behave.

Þakgil - Coolest Campsite in Iceland?
Close enough to Vik to make it accessible, but far enough off the road to get a feeling of isolation. This campsite is surrounded by breathtaking mountains, lush greenery, and the soothing sounds of nature. From the moment you arrive, the site promises an unforgettable experience that connects you to Iceland's natural splendor.
