Diamond Beach
Your first stop is the breathtaking DIAMOND BEACH, also known as Breiðamerkursandur or Crystal Beach. Located beside Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon, this black-sand shoreline is scattered with glittering icebergs that have drifted ashore, creating a dazzling contrast of ice against volcanic sand. Visitors can stroll along the beach to admire the ever-changing ice formations- especially magical in winter, when snow covers the crystals and, on clear nights, the Northern Lights dance above.
