▲ Seljalandsfoss: Located on the Seljalands River approx. 30 km west of Skogar, Iceland, this 60-meter-high waterfall is also known as the Water Curtain Cave Falls. Formed by meltwater from the Eyjafjallajokull Glacier, it boasts abundant flow. A recess in the cliff behind the falls creates a cave, allowing visitors to walk along a trail at the base of the cliff and stand behind the cascading water—an experience reminiscent of being inside a water curtain cave. One of Iceland's most stunning waterfalls, Seljalandsfoss transforms into a dazzling spectacle at sunrise or sunset when sunlight illuminates the cascading water, creating a mesmerizing misty glow.
▲ Diamond Beach: Connected to the Glacier lagoon, Atlantic waves wash ice chunks from the lagoon onto the black volcanic sand. Scattered across the dark shore, these ice pieces glitter like diamonds under sunlight, hence the name. Polished smooth by ocean waves, they refract stunning light spectrums during sunrise and sunset, creating a mesmerizing view.
▲ Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon: Iceland's famous and vast glacier lagoon, located at the southern end of Vatnajökull National Park. Formed when Breiðamerkurjökull Glacier separated from Vatnajökull, this lagoon spans approximately 25 km². Thousands of uniquely shaped icebergs float across its deep blue waters, creating a natural ice sculpture museum. Visitors can explore the lagoon by amphibious boat or rubber dinghy, with opportunities to spot seals playing among the icebergs.
▲ Blue Ice Cave: A natural ice cave beneath Vatnajökull Glacier, it's a rare and highly popular winter attraction in Iceland. Formed by summer meltwater carving channels at the glacier's base that freeze in winter, these caves shift annually due to glacial movement. The dense, bubble-free ice absorbs all colors except blue, creating an ethereal azure glow throughout the cavern.
