Safety Card · Level 1 of 4
Exercise normal precautions
Exercise normal precautions. The real risks are environmental — weather, road conditions and an unforgiving coastline — rather than crime. Rapidly changing, severe weather is the top hazard. Ongoing Reykjanes Peninsula volcanic activity can affect the Grindavik area and occasionally airport access. Glaciers, river crossings and sneaker waves require care. Medical: Excellent tap water; cold and exposure risk in the highlands.Nearest hospital surfaced via the Emergency Button Check it yourself before you goOur reading of Iceland comes from a report we haven’t independently confirmed against an official advisory.
