🇮🇸 3-Day Itinerary - Explore Iceland's South Coast. ✨ Must-See places. 💎 Hidden Gems. 👉 Insider info for every stop. ⏰ How long to stay at each spot. 🚗 Drive times. 🏡 Best places to stay. 🍦 Local food. 📸 Photography tips. ☀️ March to October are the perfect months to follow this itinerary, with sufficient daylight to complete everything according to the timing provided and the best chance to have good weather. 📸 The itinerary is timed to arrive at each spot when the light is optimal (March through October) and when the locations are less crowded (fewer tour buses). ☔️ But it's Iceland, so be prepared for some rain and wind. ❄️ November to February: While it’s possible to visit all locations during the winter, there are two challenges: ❄️ Winter driving conditions ☀️ Limited amount of daylight. 👉 More info on driving in Iceland at the bottom of the itinerary. ⚠️ Caution: Trails at Reykjadalur Thermal River & Svartifoss Waterfall could be icy. ☀️ Sunrise will dictate a later start in the winter, but the itinerary should still be doable in 3 days. ⏰ While this itinerary times everything out, including how long it takes to drive to the next stop and how long to spend at each destination... feel free to take it at your own pace. ➡️ When you're ready to head to the next stop simply use the Directions/Go button next to the "address" which links to the map (Apple Maps, Google Maps or Waze) to help you navigate.
