Seljalandsfoss
Seljalandsfoss is a supremely graceful waterfall fed by the meltwater of the Eyjafjallajokull glacier. This impressive natural wonder falls about 63 meters (200 feet) into the quiet pool below, and there is a hidden trail behind the falls so you can watch the waterfall from all directions.
30 minutesSkogafoss
Skogafoss, one of the largest and most elegant waterfalls in Iceland, is 25 meters (75 feet) wide and 60 meters (195 feet) high. A waterfall of this size generates a lot of sprays, which on sunny days often creates a bright single or even double rainbow, adding to the charm of Skogafoss Falls. We will walk to the waterfall's base and climb the stairs to the observation deck to see the waterfall from above.
Reynisfjara Beach
Reynisfjara is the most famous black sand beach on the south coast of Iceland. Its beautiful black sand and pebbles, vertical basalt columns, powerful ocean waves, and the nearby Reinisdrangar sea cliffs make Reinisfjara a truly unique place to visit.
30 minutesFjallsarlon Iceberg Lagoon
The Fjallsárlón is an iceberg lagoon at the south end of the glacier Vatnajökull. On the lagoon, you can see floating icebergs that calve from the edge of the glacier.
30 minutesGlacier Lagoon
The Jokulsarlon glacial lagoon is part of the Vatnajokull National Park. The lagoon constantly changes; blue, white, turquoise, and even black icebergs drift in it and creak in ice dance. Icebergs are 1000-year-old chunks of the retreating Breidamerkurjokull Glacier that break off, melt and float into the ocean. The lagoon is connected to the ocean through a small strait through which saltwater enters the lagoon during high tides, giving the water a unique blue-green color. During the summer months, the lagoon offers boat t and year-round hiking opportunities along the coast.
