Located between the towns of Hof and Höfn on Iceland’s famous South Coast, you’ll come across the stunning Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon. Witness the mesmerizing sight of icebergs drifting out to sea, glistening against a backdrop of black-sand beaches. For a panoramic view, climb the nearby hill and take in the beauty of the entire area. Consider embarking on a boat tour for an up-close encounter with the massive icebergs.

After exploring the lagoon, follow the river to the ocean, where smaller icebergs adorn the shores of Diamond Beach. Named for the dazzling effect created when sunlight passes through the icebergs, this beach is truly a sight to behold. Keep an eye out for seals, porpoises, and even small whales that may be spotted in the lagoon or near the shore.
