The famous Jökulsárlón glacier lagoon is to be found in the southern part of the glacier and takes its icebergs from the Breiðamerkurjökull outlet glacier. The Icebergs are multicolored and ever changing depending on seasons and oxygen that resides in the blocks and they casually float around in the lagoon, gradually melting into smaller bergs that move over to a pitch black sand beach. There they icebergs float ashore and glisten in the sun giving the beach the name “the Diamond Beach”.The wildlife at the glacier lagoon is very vivid at the lagoon as numerous seals live in the lagoon and birds such as Seagulls, Great Skuas, and Arctic Terns.
