After enjoying a hot breakfast, you will have an enthralling drive as we proceed to the peerless Black Beach of the World – the Reynisfjara. The onyx black sand of Reynisfjara is formed from volcanic activity in Iceland. When lava collides with the ocean, it rapidly cools and shatters into small fragments of basalt. Those small fragments are what comprise many of the black sand beaches around Iceland.

Next comes the major attraction of the tour – the Jokulsarlon Glacier. The iceberg floating in the midst of the frozen sea will take you to an ethereal world. The Skaftafell, located inside the Vatnajokull National Park, is just adjacent and adds more to the beauty of this place. The Jokulsarlon is always filled up to the brim due to the water fed by the melting of the glacier from Vatnajokull – the world’s largest glacier. However, the constant melting of the ice now poses a danger as the glacier might disappear in the next few decades.

Both Reynisfjara and Jokulsarlon happen to be shooting locations of the Gerua song. Later, visit the Diamond Beach where pieces of ice are scattered everywhere, looking so shimmering whose shine is no less than diamonds. Post the tour, return safely to your hotel, preceded by a dinner.
