The world’s best glacier destinations - SilverKris

"A much‑photographed glacial lagoon fed by the great icefield, famous for floating icebergs and dramatic reflections that attract photographers and sightseers. It provides iconic, close‑up views of calved ice and is commonly combined with nearby glacier excursions." - SilverKris

Jökulsáón Glacier Lagoon is always amazing to see. It can get very crowded especially during the summer months. There are three lots and you can walks between the beaches to get to the other diamonds. The lagoon itself is amazing to see and definitely worth the stop.

Definitely one of Iceland’s must-see places! We were planning to take the boat tour, but did not get booked early enough, and they were sold out. However, we enjoyed walking along the shore and taking in the spectacular view of the icebergs and the lagoon. I think you can enjoy the lagoon nearly as often in the shore as you could from a boat, but I’m sure the boat ride would still be pretty amazing as well.

Jokulsarlon Glacier Lagoon is an absolute must-see in Iceland. This iconic geographical feature is where massive blocks of ice and small icebergs float serenely in a stunning lake. The lagoon connects to the sea at Diamond Beach, where you can see ice chunks scattered across the black sand. For an up-close experience, I highly recommend booking a boat tour in advance, as slots are limited and fill up quickly. The tour takes you into the heart of the lagoon, offering breathtaking views of the floating ice and the massive glacier that feeds into the lake. It's a truly unforgettable sight!

Easy parking on both sides of the highway. This is a must see in Iceland. Truly breathtaking. Fun to watch the seals swimming amongst the broken pieces of glacier.

Wow! Incredibly beautiful place! We ended up getting doing a Kayak tour of this lagoon, which was a very special experience.
