Getting started on our Jökulsárlón glacier lagoon boat ride at the Vatnajökull National Park in southeast Iceland. Our Iceland Intrepid Travel group of 11 shared which sits at the base of an outlet glacier of the Vatnajökull glacier is one of the most visited landmarks at the National Park. We were all required to wear a life jacket and to sit while boat rolls into the water. Additionally, we were also told to wear face masks which in the last few days in Iceland has become unusual. Masks have been very infrequently worn. (Oct. 4, 2021)
