The official Northern Light season in Iceland stretches from 15 September to 15 April. Meaning the Northern Light season is just around the corner.
The Northern Lights, or Aurora Borealis, actually occur in Iceland all year round, given that the Auroral zone is situated above the country, yet it can only be seen between the months of September and April because of the bright summer nights.
For the Aurora Borealis to be seen conditions have to be ideal, i.e. a dark but clear sky. Typically the Aurora appears either as a diffuse glow or as “curtains” of light that evolve and change constantly.
