8) Iceland: Same-sex marriage legal since 2010
Iceland has the distinct pleasure of having the country governed by an openly gay individual. Although late in the passing of the same sex legislation there is now a complete set of laws that ensure a peaceful visit. Furthermore the law was enacted without opposition. The population is extremely tolerant with over 10% of the nations total population turning out for the last year’s pride festival. Iceland is one great big geothermic spa. There are hot springs to bath in and natural scenery abounds. The country makes the list as a prime destination for those who are aficionados of nature based travel. If Iceland had a longer prime travel season it would place much higher.
