Tourist Pledge
Iceland sees about 2 million visitors per year, which means that tourism is absolutely a huge part of their economy. Due to this, Iceland has created an Icelandic Pledge for tourists that will ensure that visitors respect the local nature, refrain from littering, be overall responsible, and just generally follow common sense.

Between Tectonic Plates
If you visit Iceland, you’ll be able to visit the only place on earth where you can swim between two tectonic plates. There are even some passageways that are narrow enough that you can touch both of them simultaneously, meaning you’re touching two continents at the same time too. These cracks between continents has formed because the plates are slowly pulling away from each other.
