Godafoss Waterfall & Lake Mývatn Shore Excursion

At the specified time, we will meet at the cruise terminal in Akureyri to begin our excursion to Godafoss Waterfall and Lake Mývatn, exploring key natural attractions in northern Iceland.

We will drive along the coast of Eyjafjordur. Our first destination is the Godafoss Waterfall, known as the "Waterfall of the Gods."

En route to Lake Mývatn, we will observe volcanic landscapes, including lava pillars. The lake formed from a large basaltic lava eruption 2,300 years ago.

Next, we will visit Grjótagjá Cave and the Hverarönd hot springs in Námaskarð. Here, you may choose to relax in steam baths or opt for lunch at a local restaurant during free time.

On the return trip, we will explore the Dimmuborgir lava formations and stop at Skútustaðagígar, known for pseudo craters. Our final stop will be at Eyjafjordur, the longest fjord in northern Iceland.

The excursion will conclude back at the meeting point in Akureyri after 6 hours.
