ENCUENTRA CIELOS OSCUROS

La oscuridad es esencial para ver las auroras boreales, lo que hace que el otoño, el invierno y la primavera sean las mejores estaciones para disfrutar de este espectáculo. En el verano de Islandia, con casi 24 horas de luz solar, es imposible ver las auroras. A continuación, hemos incluido un mapa que destaca las principales áreas de contaminación lumínica en Islandia: alejarte de estas zonas coloreadas te permitirá disfrutar de vistas más claras del cielo nocturno ártico. Además, hemos creado una guía detallada de los mejores lugares para que escapes de la contaminación lumínica y maximices tus posibilidades de presenciar este fenómeno impresionante.

ENCUENTRA UN LUGAR SEGURO

Perseguir las auroras boreales en Islandia implica viajar en la oscuridad, a menudo por carreteras heladas o nevadas, por lo que la seguridad es una prioridad. Evita detenerte en los arcenes, ya que pone en peligro tanto a ti como a otros conductores. En su lugar, utiliza áreas de aparcamiento designadas para una experiencia más segura. Para una aventura sin preocupaciones, únete a nuestros tours guiados por expertos: ellos se encargan de la planificación y la seguridad, para que puedas disfrutar plenamente de la magia de la aurora.

MONITORIZA LA ACTIVIDAD SOLAR

Monitorizar la actividad solar es esencial para predecir la aparición de las Auroras Boreales. El Índice Kp, representado en la escala de 9 puntos que aparece a continuación, mide la actividad geomagnética del planeta y proporciona una estimación de la intensidad promedio de la aurora durante un periodo de 3 horas. Un Kp de 0–2 indica baja actividad, 2–3 ofrece probabilidades moderadas y 4–6 señala exhibiciones intensas. Las lecturas de 7–9 son raras y pueden producir espectáculos espectaculares. Para obtener lecturas más precisas y actualizadas, consulta los datos en tiempo real proporcionados a continuación.

PREDICCIÓN DE AURORAS A TIEMPO REAL

The image below, sourced from NOAA’s Space Weather Prediction Center, offers the most up-to-date view of the auroral oval across the Northern Hemisphere. The farther south the oval extends, the greater the chances of seeing the Northern Lights at lower latitudes. We’ve also included real-time Kp Index readings and a 3-day forecast to track solar activity and aurora strength.

Nuestro feed personalizado del Kp se alinea con el de la NOAA, utilizando colores verde, amarillo y rojo para indicar números de Kp más altos y mayor actividad geomagnética. A medida que la escala pasa de verde a rojo, tus posibilidades de presenciar una exhibición vibrante de Auroras Boreales aumentan considerablemente.

I highly recommend taking this tour BEFORE you attempt to see the Northern Lights. They do a great job of explaining the phenonium and, more importantly, how to use your camera to capture the moment. Put this tour at the beginning of your trip. You will not be disappointed!

Even if you see the Northern Lights in the wild, you should still book a tour of Aurora Reykjavik. Not only will you learn a ton about the science and lore behind the Lights, you will get to see spectacular displays from all over Iceland on their huge movie screen. This was why I wanted to go, and it did NOT disappoint. Worth the price of admission by itself. But then, it was followed by a 5 minute 360 degree virtual reality presentation of even more Lights displays. So glad I went. Even though I saw the Lights in the wild, I did not feel like I'd really seen them until I went here. Loved it!

A very informative visit, excellent graphics, we had some knowledge of the lights but this explained it in great detail, thankyou. Well worth a visit and great coffee and cakes, very friendly staff, with a wide range of aurora gifts. Wonderfully colourful and an awesome theatre show, so peaceful we could have fallen to sleep. A must do attraction !!

Alan was our tour guide , he was extremely knowledgeable and provided interesting facts throughout the hike. He provided background and fun facts in general about Iceland. The hike was beautiful, we did a couple of different stops and got to see different views of where volcanos erupted. Great tour guide and great reliable tour company

Guin was a great guide full of interesting information & facts not just about geology but also about the city/country. Communication & pick up was smooth. The 12 km hike was a challenge but worth it - interesting & the views are spectacular. Take food & water! This tour does not include a stop with a restaurant or shop where you can buy lunch.

Siggi was brilliant, he was really engaging and gave us a great tour around the volcanic belts in the peninsula just off Reykjavik. He gave us witty and fun commentary throughout the whole trip making it really great fun. He was motivating on the hike and even went through some local history. Thanks siggi it was great 😀

Great experience on a hike to an active volcano area. The guide Karol was super nice and had great stories. He also stopped for a few nice spots on the way which was not originally planned. Also, Blue Lagoon was amazing.

The Golden Circle and Secret Lagoon tour was a fantastic way to experience Iceland’s natural wonders in one day. We were able to visit the Thingvellir National Park as the sun was rising, the erupting Geysir before lunch, and then gaze at the stunning Gullfoss waterfall. Each site offered breathtaking views and a glimpse into Iceland’s unique geology. The best part of the tour was relaxing at the Secret Lagoon with a beverage while reminiscing on the days travels. We highly recommend!!

A great trip with a fantastic guide who was extremely knowledgeable. She couldn’t do enough for us. The BBC scenery was stunning. Ending in the Secret Lagoon was simply perfect. The highlight for us though was the horses. Highly recommend.

I did 2 tours: the south coast (10hr) and the golden circle (7hr). Both were phenomenal and I got to check a lot of things off my list of things to see. Josip, my guide for the south coast, was amazing, super funny and interactive. He really brought some of the places to life.

The tour was well organized! Tour guide was informative and enjoyed the tour as much as we all did! Then afterwards called out who was registered for the sky lagoon which was well organized! They gave me everything included as well as a taxi at your desired time! Overall this was my favorite tour during my solo trip to Iceland it was truly otherworldly seeing so much raw nature! Highly recommend!

Anna was a charming, erudite and funny guide to the beautiful south coast (and an excellent singer!) The south coast has a cute little village called Vik and plenty of waterfalls and glaciers. The Sky Lagoon is also well worth visiting

Brilliant. The staff in reception were amazing. The whole experience was lovely. The lagoon was great the water was warm and invigorating. Moving on to the spa. The spa was a lovely way to relax. The treatments were enjoyable and the facilities brilliant. Felt relaxed and went back to the hotel and slept for about 3 hours after.

Truly relaxing afternoon. The staff was welcoming throughout the facility. The 7-step ritual was truly a unique and refreshing experience. Also fun beverages at the swim up bar - try the Crowberry Martini. Loved the views from the infinity pool and sauna. We'll worth an afternoon.

This tour was the absolute highlight of our trip to Iceland. Bryndis was a wonderful guide who was very friendly and had great knowledge which she shared with our small group. Everything was so interesting and picturesque from the volcanic crater, waterfall & geysir to the Icelandic horses and tomato greenhouses at fridheimar. The tomato soup is a must have for lunch here! Our day was rounded off with a heavenly trip to the Sky Lagoon, so relaxing! I would highly recommend this activity and company to anyone thinking of doing this whilst in Iceland.

This is a great tour of Golden Circle if you are pressed for time and have just a day to do it. They take you to a lot of places and our guide, Addi, was attentive and knowledgeable about Iceland’s history and facts. He made sure we had a great time on this tour and we did! The tomato farm was the highlight of our tour and the horse show as well.

Wow! We loved it all! Our guide Monika was amazing and got a round of applause from our bus. She kept us on schedule as we saw so much (geysers, waterfalls, tomato farm, Icelandic ponies, crater, and an experience at the spa). We just loved our guide who educated and entertained us including Icelandic music. It was all great fun, lunch at farm was delicious and each stop offered something beautiful and unique. Book this tour and you won't be sorry. Memorable, interesting, and fun!

Had the best ice caving tour with them! The hike was a bit steep for me, but our tour guide HELGI was so patient with me & helped me throughout. Our guide was also funny and gave us a lot of knowledge about the ice cave. A MUST DO ACTIVITY WHEN YOURE IN ICELAND!

We had an incredible day exploring Iceland, thanks to our fantastic guides! Lili, our tour guide and driver, took us from Reykjavik to Vik and back with unforgettable stops at Seljalandsfoss and Skogafoss waterfalls. She was not only an excellent driver but also wonderfully informative and friendly, sharing fascinating stories and insights about Icelandic history, culture, and the stunning landscapes we passed. Her warm personality made the journey truly special! At the Katla ice caves, Hawk guided us through a surreal, otherworldly experience. He struck the perfect balance between being informative and entertaining, explaining the unique features of the caves while keeping us laughing with his great sense of humor. Even the bumpy ride to the glacier was fun, thanks to his lively energy and expert navigation. This tour was the perfect mix of breathtaking sights, fascinating knowledge, and great company. Huge thanks to Lili and Hawk for making it such an unforgettable adventure—we highly recommend this trip to anyone visiting Iceland!

The tour was FANTASTIC. It was one of the highlights of our trip. It hit all the highlights of the “golden circle” and our guide Snorri was Awesome! He even convinced us to do the south coast tour as well. It was fantastic and the van even had wifi. Completely recommend. Snorri was great, his stories kept us entertained and his information was spot on. Excellent adventure!

The whole experience was just marvellous, the coach driver well he was more of a guide, explained in detail of each location we visited, chatted about Iceland in general, but he made it so interesting and fun. There was never a dull moment. The day just flew by. If you go to Iceland this tour is a must.

Right around Iceland in winter was such a treat. The dark days delivered secrets and spectacles that will stay with me forever. The bus was warm, the accommodation was beautifully diverse, from comfortable hotels to unique farm stays. All added to the feeling that we were really seeing what life in Iceland is like. Along side the spectacular scenery, our guide Vjeran was an addition that absolutely made our trip. He was passionate about the country, provided us, with stories of trolls and elves, alongside facts and details. Recommendations of not only where, but what to eat, made us feel like we were getting some special secret insights. From the first pick up to the final drop off he had us laughing and learning the whole way. His energy and enthusiasm is endless. This is a must do trip.

The trip is absolutely amazing - went to the famous tourist spots and also a dozen of other hidden photo spots. Once in a lifetime experience. Getting to see northern lights on three of the nights was just icing on the cake which says a lot about how awesome the trip was. Diddy is one of the best tour guides I have met ever. He’s knowledgeable, helpful, and has a good sense of humor! Would love to join another tour of his again next time we visit Iceland.

Got engaged on the Northern lights tour, crew could not have been more happy and friendly. Amazing views and pictures and special thanks to our super entertaining guide Patrick who helped set up the occasion as well as plenty of interesting facts about the Northern lights

The northern lights cruise was nice! The boat was comfortable and we learned a lot about the lights. We did not see the lights the first time going, so we were given the chance to try again for free. Second time we saw them! We are so glad we saw them especially given the time we went. There’s less of a chance in April, but the guides had hawk eyes and looked for any type of action for us. So happy with the tour!

Yesterday we were lucky enough to live one of the most incredible experiences of our lives: watching the Northern Lights. The natural spectacle was simply breathtaking, and the professionalism and dedication of the guide were key to making this experience memorable. Undoubtedly, a moment that we will always carry in our hearts.

We had a great time! Our tour guide Palli was very kind and persistent with tracking the lights — we had given up on seeing them and last minute, he spotted a beautiful dancing aurora that we got to watch and take pictures with. Would absolutely recommend!

by rebeccaalicebamber

marzo 9, 2025

Couldn’t recommend this trip enough! We were very lucky that the Aurora was on high alert so we had good chances of seeing it. As soon as we got on the bus the northern lights had already become visible so our lovely guide Palli got us to darkness as soon as possible to view this amazing phenomenon. We have never seen anything quite like it, it was so easy to see even without a camera.

Preguntas frecuentes

¿Por qué el pronóstico de Auroras cambia continuamente?

Los pronósticos de auroras cambian porque el sol está lleno de sorpresas. La actividad solar, como las erupciones solares y los vientos solares, varía constantemente, afectando cómo y dónde aparecen las Auroras Boreales. Las condiciones meteorológicas en la Tierra, especialmente la cobertura de nubes, también juegan un papel importante. Por eso, consultar las actualizaciones en tiempo real te mantiene un paso adelante para vivir la mejor experiencia de auroras.

¿Hay otras fuentes de datos sobre auroras que debería seguir?

Yes! Keep an eye on the Leirvogur Magnetic Observatory, which tracks magnetic disturbances over Iceland. When the graphs show increased movement, it means solar winds are shaking Earth’s magnetic field – often leading to aurora outbursts. Monitoring this alongside the Kp Index and real-time forecasts can give you the best chance to catch the Northern Lights!

¿Qué precisión tiene el Índice Kp para ver las Auroras Boreales?

El Índice Kp es una herramienta fiable para medir la actividad geomagnética y predecir las Auroras Boreales, pero no es perfecto. Proporciona un pronóstico general promediado en periodos de 3 horas, por lo que las condiciones pueden cambiar rápidamente. Para obtener las predicciones más precisas, combina el Índice Kp con datos en tiempo real sobre la actividad solar, la cobertura de nubes y las perturbaciones magnéticas locales.

¿Cuáles son los mejores meses para ver las Auroras Boreales en Islandia?

Los mejores meses para ver las Auroras Boreales en Islandia son de septiembre a abril. Durante este periodo, las noches son más largas y oscuras, creando condiciones ideales para observar las auroras. Los meses pico son de octubre a marzo, cuando los cielos están más oscuros y la actividad solar suele ser más intensa. Solo recuerda consultar el pronóstico del tiempo para asegurarte de que el cielo esté despejado.

¿Cuál es la diferencia entre un número bajo de Kp y un número alto de Kp para ver las Auroras Boreales?

Un número bajo de Kp (0–2) significa que las Auroras Boreales probablemente serán tenues, apareciendo como un resplandor suave y pálido, a menudo parecido a nubes finas, y suelen ser visibles solo en las zonas más al norte. Un número alto de Kp (5–9) trae exhibiciones vibrantes y dinámicas con colores brillantes como verdes, moras e incluso rojos bailando por el cielo, a veces visibles mucho más al sur.

¿Puedo ver las Auroras Boreales en verano?

Ver las Auroras Boreales en Islandia durante el verano es extremadamente poco probable. De mayo a agosto, Islandia experimenta casi 24 horas de luz diurna debido al Sol de Medianoche, lo que hace que el cielo esté demasiado brillante para que la aurora sea visible. Para tener la mejor oportunidad de ver las Auroras Boreales, visita entre septiembre y abril, cuando las noches son oscuras y largas.

¿Cuáles son las mejores aplicaciones de pronóstico de Auroras Boreales para mejorar mi experiencia?

Para mejorar tu experiencia de las Auroras Boreales, varias aplicaciones ofrecen pronósticos en tiempo real y herramientas útiles para encontrar los mejores lugares de observación. Las principales recomendaciones incluyen:

My Aurora Forecast – Live aurora maps, 27-day forecasts, and customizable alerts. Great for both beginners and seasoned chasers.
