What to expect
Daytime
You want a proper coat in Iceland in June, not a festival jacket. Wind makes the same afternoon feel sharper than the map suggests.
Outdoor time is the middle of the day. Finish plans before the light goes. Evenings are for indoors.
Rain
June is on the drier side of the year in Iceland. Showers are possible. They do not define the month.
A shell that lives in the bag is enough. This is not October, and it should not be packed as if it were.
Evening
Evenings are cooler. A layer helps after sunset.
What to pack
A layer for cooler evenings
