themagnificent Glacial Lagoon Jökulsárlón there are two daily departures
available at 08:30 and 13:00. Return to Skaftafell at 11:15 and

with the Atlantic ocean on the other side. Jökulsárlón, (the
Glacier Lagoon) is a glacial river lagoon and part
of one of the shortest rivers in Iceland, Jökulsá á
Breidamerkursandi. Huge blocks of ice which are over 1000 years
old, constantly break off the glacier, Breidamerkurjokull, and
large icebergs from the glacier float on the
lagoon. The lagoon is not very wide but it is over
200 meters deep. The glacier Breiđamerkurjökull is a tongue
of the glacier Vatnajökull. Breiđármerkursandur and Skeiđarársandur
is home to the Northern Hemisphere`s largest colony
of breeding great skuas. |
