One of the most progrsive, liberal and welg ci the world, Gay Reykjavik is a ptivatg statn wh betiful sign, a rich history, and a burgeong nightlife scene. While many travelers will be drawn to Iceland for s stunng natural vistas – unparalleled anywhere else on earth – is also important to know Iceland is gay-iendly.

Gay people here stand equal to straight people the ey of the law, and while work still remas to be done, pecially regard to transgenr rights, Iceland is much further down the road to full and utter equaly than almost any other statn that we have ever vised.
