Introduction to Iceland Diamond Beach Where is Iceland Diamond Beach? In which city is Iceland Diamond Beach located?

Iceland’s Diamond Beach is a unique natural landscape full of romance and a very rare phenomenon around the Arctic Circle. The black material ejected by the volcano is mixed with ice and stones, and after a series of natural reactions, unique black sand beaches and diamond structures emerge.

Introduction to Iceland’s Diamond Beach

The Kjegulsarlon Glacier Lagoon is located at the mouth of the southeastern edge of Iceland’s famous Vatnaj?kull glacier. Huge blocks of ice on Vatnaj?kull continue to collapse and flow into the Kjegursarlon glacier lagoon. Finally, these crystal clear ice flows from the river mouth into the Atlantic Ocean. However, these ice blocks did not flow very far, but were washed up by the Atlantic Ocean on the black sand beach opposite the Sharon Glacier Lake in Jiegu Town. Unlike other beaches where the sand comes from, the black material on this beach comes from volcanic eruptions. The ice on the black sand beach is milky white, but still has a certain degree of transparency. In the setting sun, these ice cubes sparkle like shining diamonds in sharp contrast to the black sand.

Diamond Beach is the southeastern estuary of Iceland's Jegusarlon Glacier Lake. Due to the large amount of water in the lake, it carries a large amount of ice. Many ice blocks are pushed to the black beach by the ocean currents, forming a unique diamond beach landscape.

The ice cubes stranded on Diamond Beach are like sparkling "diamonds" of various shapes, which are very pure and natural in beauty. This is also the most unforgettable and favorite scene of my trip to Iceland. I've been there twice, the first time near sunset and the second time at noon. Because of the different weather and light, the scenery displayed is also different, especially when I came the next day, the ice cubes reflected the light of diamonds under the sunlight.

Things to note when traveling to Iceland’s Diamond Beach

No matter how beautiful the scenery is, you must pay attention to safety. Watch out for waves and large chunks of ice coming up.

At that time I only cared about taking pictures. I noticed the waves were coming up, and when I was about to run back, there happened to be an ice block behind me. I slipped on the ice block and the waves made my shoes wet.

In addition, pay attention to wind protection and warmth. The temperature here is very low and the wind is very strong. You must keep warm to avoid harm to the body.
