Guided Glacier Lagoon and Diamond Beach Day Trip from Reykjavik
Discover the breathtaking beauty of Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon, where ancient icebergs, some over 1,000 years old, drift silently across Iceland’s deepest lake. Fed by the Vatnajökull glacier, this 18-square-kilometre natural wonder offers a tranquil, otherworldly landscape you won’t forget. As you walk along the lagoon’s edge, you might recognize its cinematic scenery from films like Batman Begins, Tomb Raider, and James Bond. A must-see highlight of Iceland’s south coast, the lagoon is a surreal blend of ice, water, and light.
