5Reykjavik, Iceland
Iceland has experienced a tourism boom in recent years, largely driven by its stunning natural landscapes and its increasing popularity on social media. Reykjavik, the capital, has become a hub for visitors eager to explore the island’s glaciers, waterfalls, and volcanic landscapes. However, the country’s fragile ecosystems are struggling to cope with the rising number of tourists, and local infrastructure in Reykjavik is being stretched to its limits. Efforts are being made to promote sustainable tourism, including spreading visitors across different regions and limiting access to certain natural sites, but overtourism remains a growing concern.
