The nearby Earth Lagoon are heated by geothermal water rising from a deep fissure in the Earth's crust. Enter the steaming water and feel a sense of well-being wash over you.
Afterwards, you'll re-board the motorcoach and continue to Godafoss Waterfall for a photo opportunity.In the year 1000 the Lawspeaker Thorgeir Thorkelsson made Christianity the official religion of Iceland. After his conversion Thorgeir threw his statues of the Norse gods into the waterfall. Snap off some impressive shots of the beautiful crescent-shaped canyon with its cascading falls before re-boarding the motorcoach for the return route to your ship.
