Diamond Beach: The best place in Iceland to get your feet wet.

A little further along the beach it gets much quieter, and then you don't have footprints everywhere in your photos.

The Jökulsarlon Glacier Lagoon was formed naturally from melted glacial waters and continues to expand as icebergs break off from the shrinking glacier. This ever-changing landscape is a striking visual reminder of global warming, as the glacier retreats noticeably year after year.

In the summer months, it's possible to visit the lagoon up close and even touch the ice: several companies offer amphibious boat or zodiac excursions that depart from the shore and sail among the icebergs, with prices around €100. The Jökulsárlón glacial lagoon, at the foot of Breiðamerkurjökull, is Iceland's most famous glacial lake and seems like a world unto itself. Ice blocks of all sizes and colors float within it, from pure white to intense blue or streaked with black volcanic ash. Access from the main road is direct and easy, even by bike, with several easy-to-reach stops. It's a good idea to bring warm clothing because the air descending from the glacier is icy, and take the time to watch the icebergs drift slowly toward the sea. Seals are often seen playing among the chunks of ice, making the scene even more magical. It's a place that never disappoints: changing every minute and always seeming freshly created.

In the shadow of Vatnajökull lies Breiðárlón, a glacial lagoon much less crowded than its famous neighbor Jökulsárlón. Here, icebergs float silently, reflecting blue and white hues that change with the light. It's a peaceful spot, free from crowds, ideal for experiencing the grandeur of ice and the calm of nature in its purest form.

Here, the Fjallsjökull glacier, part of the gigantic Vatnajökull (8,000 km²), melts into a lagoon filled with icebergs that resemble sculptures. Quieter than Jökulsárlón, it's perfect for a quick bike ride and to feel the power of the ice just a few meters away.

Here, you'll simply be amazed. Crystal-clear, more or less rounded blocks of ice on black sand—you'll constantly discover an even more beautiful sight.

An incredibly beautiful place with so many icebergs in the lagoon—it's a bit surprising how the boat tours ever manage to make it here. The view up to the steep glacier tongue is simply impressive. And the whole thing is also much quieter than the larger lagoons in the area.
