Iceland is closer to the North Pole because part of Iceland is in the Arctic Circle.

Iceland - latitude 65 00 N, so it is 25° from the N. Pole

New Zealand - Latitude: 41 00 S, so it is 49° from the S. Pole

The North Pole is in the Arctic.

If you meant to compare the North Pole to Antarctica, the south Pole, please know that Antarctica is about 30 degrees F colder than the Arctic. Antarctica is a continent surrounded by the Southern Ocean. The Arctic is frozen sea water -- the Arctic Ocean, surrounded by land.
