This environmentally friendly experience provides stable kayaks suitable for beginners and all necessary equipment, making it accessible to those with reasonable fitness. Ideal for nature lovers and adventure seekers, you'll get to experience a unique perspective of Iceland's glacial beauty.

The fun begins at the main parking lot of Jökulsárlón, where you'll meet your friendly experts at their small box van, fully equipped to provide you with everything needed for a safe and enjoyable excursion. Before setting off, you'll be equipped with a two-piece drysuit, life vest, kayak boots, and of course, your kayak.
