On this easy kayaking tour on the Sólheimajökull Glacier Lagoon, you will leave the sightseeing crowds behind and take in the beauty of the outlet glacier while on a kayak.

You will be equipped with a dry suit and your expert kayak guide will show you the paddling technique needed for the stable sit-on-top kayaks. The calm glacier lagoon is perfect for first-time kayaking and the views certainly don't disappoint. You will paddle between ever-changing icebergs and go up close with the Sólheimajökull glacier ice fall, where those giant icebergs break away from the glacier.

Don’t forget your camera, as this tour is sure to leave lasting memories.
