9. Westman Islands, Iceland
After a gloomy winter when there’s hardly any daylight and roads are blocked with snow, summers come as a pleasant news in Iceland. There are more than 20hrs of sunshine, the green landscape turns stunningly beautiful, the Westfjords is back to its gorgeous self, and hikers start to flock into the nation from all parts of the world.
Every August, Westman Islands in Iceland turn into birdwatching haven as the cute puffins take their first flight from the cliff-side nests. Not just that, August is also a berry picking time when the blueberry and other berries ripen and create a lovely picture.
