Grotta Lighthouse is a popular tourist spot located atop the island with the same name, located northwest of Reykjavik. The lighthouse is famous due to the view of the Northern Lights from here. The Northern Light viewing from the lighthouse is possible as it is farther from the city.
Aside from being the perfect spot to capture a photo of the Northern Lights, it also has natural wonders surrounding it. The isle is made of dark sands and contrasts with the bright seawater around it.
People can only access it when there is a low tide through the spit connecting it to the city. So the tourists must refer to the tide chart to ensure they visit during the low tide and travel safely. The walk to the island is beautiful as you can admire the scenery as you reach the isle. The Grotta Lighthouse area is also a nature reserve since 1970. So guests cannot access the lighthouse during the summer months to protect the birds nesting there.
