Set off for a hassle-free summer escape
Reykjavik
If you’re always saying that there just aren’t enough hours in the day, head to Iceland this summer, when the sun shines at midnight – you'll have no excuse but to get out and explore Reykjavik and its unique natural surroundings. Once you've arrived in this Nordic capital, spend the weekend discovering hot springs, spouting geysers, waterfalls, mountains, and glaciers – plan on teeing off at midnight and taking a dip in the fabled Blue Lagoon. If you’re more of a city-slicker than nature-lover, Reykjavik itself is equally dynamic, with cultural institutions that showcase the island’s Viking culture and a legendary nightlife scene rife with trendy pubs and clubs.
How: Direct flights to Reykjavik, Iceland (REK) are available on Icelandair from Boston (5 hours), New York (5.5 hours), and Minneapolis (7 hours).
