+32 photos
Join Sindri for a 3-day photography experience on Iceland’s stunning southeast coast. As a local guide with over a decade of experience, I’ll take you to my favourite photography locations—places that offer iconic views and perspectives most visitors never get to see. This tour is designed to combine adventure, photography, and authentic local experiences, all in a small group setting.
### **Tour Highlights**
Over the course of three days, we’ll visit some of the most photogenic spots in the South East, including:
* **Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon** and **Diamond Beach**, where icebergs meet the sea.
* **Heinabergslón** and **Fláajökull Overview**, showcasing the beauty of Iceland’s glaciers.
* **Stokksnes** and **Suðurfjara (Melatangi)** offer dramatic coastal scenery.
* **Bergárfoss** and **Skútafoss** are two hidden waterfalls perfect for capturing unique shots.
* **Höfn Coastline** provides sweeping views of glaciers from afar.
* **Early Morning Photography** captures the soft light of dawn in stunning locations.
* **Meet my Family,** Sharing a home-cooked meal with my family
In addition, we’ll take a **glacier walk** to explore the ice up close, which will provide even more incredible photographic opportunities.
### **Tour Schedule and Meeting Point**
The tour begins at **Haukafell Camping** on the first day at **13:00 (1:00 PM)** and concludes around **17:00 (5:00 PM)** on the final day. This schedule allows for a mix of daytime exploration and photography during the best light conditions.
### **Cultural Experience**
