Description
Kayaking by the Glacier is for travellers who want to slow down and experience Icelandic glacier scenery from the water. Instead of only viewing the landscape from a roadside stop, you paddle through a quieter setting with mountains, ice or glacier-shaped scenery nearby.
The experience works well as an active South Coast add-on: accessible, scenic and different from the usual waterfall-and-beach route.
