March 2024: What You Need to Know About the Latest Volcanic Eruption

On March 16, 2024, Iceland experienced another volcanic eruption on the Reykjanes peninsula near Mt. Hagafell, marking the fourth eruption in the area since December 2023.
Although the eruption continues, its intensity has notably lessened. Scientists anticipate that it will be brief, akin to the preceding three eruptions.
  • The eruption marks the seventh eruption in the Reykjanes peninsula in the last 3 years. 
  • Flights are operating as usual with no disruptions.
  • There is no imminent danger to lives.
  • The eruption´s effects are localized to the eruption site.
  • Tourists can explore Iceland safely. 

Is it still safe to visit Iceland?

Yes absolutely. Until the Icelandic government suggest otherwise, travelling to Iceland is still completely safe. The Icelandic Meteorological Office, The National Police Commissioner, The Department of Civil Protection and Emergency Management, and a team of scientists from the University of Iceland have closely monitored this situation since the beginning and are constantly analysing developments.
 
If you’d like to visit Iceland, and who knows maybe witness some volcanic activity for yourself (from a distance, of course!), head over to the Iceland Holidays website here or get in touch with our team of specialists at info@icelandholidays.com.
