Heading off day number 2 is Jökulsárlón glacier lagoon, a 200m deep lagoon fed by Breiðarmerkurjökull, an outlet glacier of Europe's largest glacier. Enormous icebergs come from the glacier all year around so the lagoon is usually filled with ice that floats South. Try walking alongside the glacier lagoon enjoying the magnificent views.

On the other side of the road the ice bergs from Jökulsárlón glacier lagoon float into the Atlantic Ocean where they are quickly thrown back to shore by the tide and winds. This black sand beach is full of smaller ice rocks in all shapes and sizes, sparkling like diamonds in the daylight.

The Black Sand Beach of Reynisfjara where the Atlantic coastline presents massive waves hitting the unique basalt columns in the cliffs above the sand. Rock pillars in water and the cliffs of Dýrhóley are seen in the distance. This area of the South is also a paradise for bird lovers, as puffins and dozens of other unique species nest on top of these cliffs in the summertime from June to August.
