The Glacier Lagoon in Iceland is located by highway number one, about 370 km (230 miles) east of Reykjavík and it is told to be one of the greatest natural wonders in Iceland. Embark on an exciting boat trip on the Glacier Lagoon in a Zodiac Boat.
On the Zodiac you are able to cover large areas of the lagoon and get closer to the icebergs than on the amphibian boats. When possible the Zodiac goes almost all the way up to the glacier wall (as close as safe). Passengers are provided with flotation suits and a life jacket.
