Respect & manners
- In swimming pools and hot springs, shower without your swimsuit before getting in: it is the rule.
- Driving off-road is illegal and heavily fined: stay on marked roads and tracks.
- Never turn your back to the sea at black-sand beaches like Reynisfjara: "sneaker waves" are deadly.
- Tipping is not expected.
- Respect closures at volcanic eruption sites: gases are dangerous.
