Jokulsarlon Iceberg Boat Cruise and South Coast Day Tour from Reykjavik BSI Terminal (12/12)

This South Coast day tour from Reykjavik is built around a boat cruise on Jökulsárlón, among drifting icebergs, some of them over 1,000 years old, on Iceland's deepest lake. Afterward comes a walk on Diamond Beach, where fragments of the lagoon's ice lie on black volcanic sand. The day starts at the BSÍ Bus Terminal, with a short comfort stop at Hvolsvöllur on the way. The route passes Eyjafjallajökull, the glacier-capped volcano that erupted in 2010, and stops at Skógafoss, where legend says a treasure chest is hidden behind the falls. After the lagoon and a lunch break, the group stops in Vík for a dinner break and finishes at Seljalandsfoss, where visitors can walk behind the cascade through a cave-like hollow in the rock. Along the road there are views of glaciers, lava fields and rugged coastline, and guides share local insight.

What's included

  • Approximately 30 minute boat tour among the icebergs

Itinerary

  1. Vatnsmýrarvegur 10, Reykjavík

    BSÍ Bus Terminal is the central hub in Reykjavik, a short walk from the city center, and the main departure point for airport transfers and day tours. Arrive at least 15 minutes before the scheduled departure.

  2. Hvolsvollur

    A short comfort break before the drive continues to the glacier lagoon.

  3. Volcano Eyjafjallajokull

    Eyjafjallajökull is a stratovolcano known for its 2010 eruption, which disrupted air travel across Europe. A glacier covers it, and jökull is the Icelandic word for glacier, which gives the volcano its name.

  4. Skogafoss

    Skógafoss falls into the Skógá River in southern Iceland and is one of the country's most photographed waterfalls. Legend says a treasure chest is hidden behind it.

  5. Skaftafellsjökull

    Lunch break.

  6. Jokulsarlon

    Jökulsárlón is a glacial lagoon in southeast Iceland, fed by melting ice from Breiðamerkurjökull, with blue water dotted with icebergs. The boat ride glides among the floating ice, close to the details of the icebergs and their shades of blue.

  7. Diamond Beach

    Icebergs from the lagoon wash up on the black volcanic sand of Diamond Beach, ice against dark sand.

  8. Vik

    Vík is a coastal village in southern Iceland with black sand beaches and dramatic rock formations. This stop is the dinner break.

  9. Seljalandsfoss

    Seljalandsfoss can be walked behind, thanks to a cave-like hollow in the rock behind the cascade. In summer, the long daylight hours light up the fall.

  10. Vatnsmýrarvegur 10, Reykjavík
