When such an agreement is in place, the passport must be valid for the entire period of the visitorâs intended stay, but the additional six month validity period is not required.

Average hours of sunlight: 57. Average of lowest and highest recorded temperature in February: Low -9.88Â°C / 14,22Â°F â High 7.81Â°C / 46.06Â°F. Length of day on February 1st: 7 hours and 8 minutes. A friend of mine once said that the best thing about February in Iceland is how short it is.
Come mid-September, though, almost all of the summer activities will be closed until May of the following year. The colder part of the year is also the time when flight prices to Iceland fall drastically and suddenly the local hotels cut their prices in more than half. Budget travelers wondering when to go to Iceland should aim for February or March. They have more daylight than the earlier winter months. If you decide to go to Iceland in the winter, get ready for very cold temperatures and only 3-4 hours of daylight (called the Polar Nights).
