№ 0038SOUTH COAST · IS
Over 10,000 waterfalls mapped with precise coordinates. I photographed dozens of hidden cascades that aren't in any guidebook. Absolutely essential for waterfall photography in Iceland.
№ 0047RING ROAD · IS
The complete set is incredible value. Every waterfall and lighthouse pinpointed perfectly — saved us hours of planning for our 10-day ring road trip.
№ 0025VESTMANNAEYJAR · IS
Found puffin colonies I didn't know existed. The seasonal timing notes were especially helpful — arrived at the perfect time to photograph nesting puffins at Látrabjarg.
Iceland is one of the most desired destinations for Landscape photographers. Whether you are visiting it in summer or in the winter the Landscape changes dramatically and offers a photographer many opportunities to capture a perfect shot.

Lighthouses are one of the more elusive objects coveted by many photographers. Since Iceland is an island in the middle of an ocean it has many lighthouses up and down the coasts.
Explore Lighthouse GPS Map
Churches are one of the national treasures of Iceland. There are some that are very old and were built in the days of the Vikings. Others are modern and were built only a few years ago.

Puffins are cute little birds that are no more than 13" long. They have yellow beaks and yellow feet which makes them a very interesting photography subject. Iceland has over 10 million of them.

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers about formats, offline use, and which map fits your trip.

  • A library of photographer-curated GPS map files for Iceland. Every location is hand-picked as a photography viewpoint and shipped as KML, GPX, and GeoJSON files you can load into your phone, GPS device, or laptop and use offline.
  • If you're doing a single-subject trip (only waterfalls, only lighthouses, etc.) buy the matching category. If your trip covers two or more subjects — most Ring Road and 7+ day itineraries do — the All Maps bundle is cheaper than buying two individual maps.
  • Yes — that's the point. Once imported into Google My Maps, Gaia GPS, Google Earth, Garmin, or Maps.me, the waypoints live on your device and don't need cell service. Iceland's coverage is patchy outside the Ring Road, so offline is non-negotiable for the highlands, F-roads, and Westfjords.
  • Yes. We have step-by-step guides for Google Maps, Google Earth, and Gaia GPS. The files are standard formats — they also work in Garmin BaseCamp, Maps.me, OsmAnd, Locus Map, AllTrails, and any other app that accepts KML or GPX.
  • Yes. Pay once and download immediately. No subscription. Personal-use license covers your phone, a backup phone, a tablet, a GPS handheld, and a laptop.
  • Printed maps don't load into your phone, can't be searched, can't run on a GPS device, and can't update when locations change. Our files are designed to live in the apps you're already using — and to work where the road ends and the signal drops.

Essential Iceland Photography Maps for Your Next Expedition

Planning a photography trip to Iceland requires more than just a camera and a flight. To capture iconic shots of Skogafoss, Kirkjufell, and the Diamond Beach, you need precise GPS coordinates and reliable offline maps. Our comprehensive KML, GPX, and GeoJson maps are specifically designed for landscape photographers who want to maximize their time in the field.

Why use professional GPS coordinates for Iceland?

Iceland's weather is unpredictable and many of the best photography spots—from remote highland waterfalls to hidden coastal lighthouses—aren't always clearly marked on standard tourist maps. By using our curated GPS maps, you can:

  • Find Secret Locations: Discover lesser-known spots away from the massive tourist crowds.
  • Navigate Safely: Use GPX tracks to stay on safe paths when visiting remote Iceland churches and puffin colonies.
  • Maximize Lighting: Know exactly where your subject is so you can be in position for the perfect sunrise or sunset.

Whether you are chasing the Northern Lights in the winter or photographing Atlantic Puffins during the midnight sun, having the right data on your phone or GPS device is the secret to a successful photography workshop or solo trip.
