Iceland lies in the North Atlantic Ocean between Europe and North America and comprises the mountainous island of Iceland and its outlying islets. In a sense, it is a well-named territory, as over eleven percent of the country is covered by glaciers. However, Iceland also boasts a surprisingly mild climate in the summer and numerous geothermal hot-spots.
