      The drift ice of the Jökulsárlón makes its way into the Atlantic and is often washed up on the black beach. There it melts and can act as stunning photo opportunities or be touched and admired.

        Drift ice from the opening glacier tongue makes its way out of the lagoon into the Atlantic at this point. The narrow passage leads to icebergs wedging there and getting stuck in the spillway towards the Atlantic. A fascinating spectacle.
