It was a majestic day on National Geographic Explorer. We headed to the frontier of the east of Iceland to observe everything from ice chunks on black sand beaches to reindeers galloping across fields of green. The 4x4 off roading added adventure to the journey, and the falls took our breath away with their impeccable beauty. Even a quaint walk through town gave us a sense of tranquility. Guests enjoyed delicious traditional Icelandic hotdogs, which have been praised since the beginning of the voyage.

The highlight of recap was a presentation from the undersea team. Their macro footage brought color and wonder to a gray day. Who knew so much beauty could be found in the depths of the fjords? To complement this exciting recap, kelp cocktails were on offer. As we ended the night, guests learned about Norse mythology during a lecture from Dorothee Hippel. It was another memorable day in Iceland.
