Óskar and his team have a brilliant summer offering: kayaking among icebergs on a silent glacier lagoon. The lagoon is the nearby Heinabergslón, at the foot of Heinabergsjökull, and the trip usually includes a short walk on the glacier itself (adult/child from 15,900/8900kr; minimum age 14). Kayaks are "sit-on-top" style, so experience isn't necessary. The company also has kayaking at Jökulsárlón.
Summer trips to Heinabergslón depart from Flatey. Bookings advised for all tours.
From November to March, IceGuide leads tours to ice caves from a base at Jökulsárlón (29,900kr; minimum age 16). These trips involve a 4WD journey to the glacier edge, then a walk on rough terrain to reach the cave. Participants need a reasonable level of fitness and warm clothes; see the website for more information.
