8 Of Iceland’s Best Instagrammers

Hi my name is Kaelene and I am obsessed with Instagram. Like I can’t pick up my phone to check the time without checking Instagram first obsessed. But since I am filling my feed with beautiful pictures that spark my wanderlust I am going to keep this healthy obsession of mine and keep on Instagramming away!

With all that time spent on Instagram I have discovered some real gems of accounts to follow, including some awesome Iceland Instagrammers. I have many of these IG accounts below to thank for the beautiful places I have visited in Iceland. It is thanks to their accounts that I have discovered these places, such as the smoking hot Krýsuvík, and get to have my own Instagram worthy adventure.

If you are planning a trip to Iceland and looking for some beautiful places to visit, or are just dreaming of visiting Iceland and need something to fill the void until you can head this way, add these Instagrams to your newsfeed and get your dose of Iceland everyday!

Best of Iceland is all about bringing the best of Iceland to your Instagram feed, and they most certainly do just that. This account if full of regrams from some amazing photographers that travel around Iceland taking stunning shots along the way. If your trying to find some places to add to your Iceland travel list this account will be sure to give you some ideas. My list is forever growing thanks to this account!

I heart Reykjavik is the Instagram account of one amazing Iceland blogger, Auður. She is always sharing the most beautiful places and great tips to go along with it. I have her Instagram account to thank for my recent trip to the Secret Lagoon, a place I never had heard of until I saw it pop up on her IG. With a blog full of amazing travel tips and a Instagram feed packed with pretty pictures around Reykjavik she is one account you will want to follow.

A Norwegian architect living in Iceland and Instagramming each day since he arrived, this Instagram account is full of intriguing pictures of Iceland! From beautiful shots of the Icelandic architecture to simple daily life moments in Iceland this account has me hooked, and looking at the buildings around town in a more appreciative way!

4 | @tinyiceland

Tiny Iceland is the perfect Instagram account to spark your Iceland wanderlust. Every time I see a picture from Tiny Iceland in my news feed I am reminded of how beautiful Iceland is. And on those days when I am stuck inside at work I can always count on Tiny Iceland to bring some adventure to my IG feed!

This list wouldn’t be complete with the increasingly popular Reykjavik police on here! Gaining worldwide popularity this Instagram account always brings a smile to my face. Something about seeing cops taking selfies or coloring with little kids, it is just ridiculously adorable.

6 | @63north

I recently discovered Ofelia Frisk’s Instagram account and it is quickly becoming one of my favorites! Just looking at his gallery makes me feel like I am on some grand Icelandic road trip. If you are planning a trip around Iceland this account will get you more than excited on what is to come.

7 | @absolute_iceland

Árni Víđir Hjartarson runs one of Iceland’s most popular Instagram accounts and with a quick glance at his gallery you will see why. His pictures from all over Iceland are breathtaking, but my favorites are the ones that include his adorable dog Neró.

8 | @sesseljaosk

One of the first Icelandic Instagrammers I followed, Sesselja is a 19 year old Icelandic girl with one beautiful Instagram gallery. I love seeing the beauty of Iceland through a local, I am always discovering new spots to visit thanks to her account.

Bonus | @kkiki10

Just going to crash the party with all these awesome Instagrammers up there and pretend like we are on the same level. The longer I live in Iceland the more I love sharing its beauty with others. Discovering new beautiful places in a country full of hidden gems and sharing them with you all on Instagram is just a blast. I hope you get a little bit of wanderlust from my IG account, everyone should see the beauty of Iceland at least once!

Question of the Day?
Who are your favorite Instagram accounts?

  • Caitlin Travis

    It is so unfair that Iceland is so unbelievably beautiful. It seems like you don’t have to do anything but turn a corner and BAM something spectacular.

    • http://unlockingkiki.com/ Kaelene @ Unlocking Kiki
