Day 4 - Glacial Lagoon

Today we head out to the amazing glacier lagoon Jokulsarlon Jökulsárlón is a large glacial lake in the southern part of Vatnajökull National Park, Iceland. Situated at the head of the Breiðamerkurjökull glacier, it developed into a lake after the glacier started receding from the edge of the Atlantic Ocean. The lake has grown since then at varying rates because of the melting of the glaciers. It is now 0.5 km away from the ocean's edge and covers an area of about 18 km2 (6.9 sq mi). In 2009 it was reported to be the deepest lake in Iceland, at over 284 m (932 ft), as glacial retreat extended its boundaries. The size of the lake has increased fourfold since the 1980s.

Just an incredible place that nobody forgets. We spend the day exploring the area, going to the beach, looking at icebergs, go for a boat tour on the lagoon. So much to see and do in the area

Prepare to be amazed

Words are often not enough to describe the unfolding Icelandic landscape and its spellbinding glaciers, as they glisten in the bright sunlight. They appear impenetrable as you walk the narrow path to their beginning. They span for miles, traumatised through the incredible force of nature into astonishing shapes and ridges. They appear a speckled blue merging to grey before in the far distance a cleaner white.. They span as far as they eye can see and as you approach them you feel the cool draught of the wind as it blows down through them. You stand bewildered at the enormity of it all and knowing the challenge ahead but this is Iceland and the land of epic adventure and what could be more natural than stepping beyond the norm into the truly untamed and wild.
