NORTHERN EUROPE | 45 Day 6. Grimsey Island. Today visit Grimsey Island, bisected by the Arctic Circle. Here enjoy free time to take a nature walk exploring the island's basalt cliffs, home to countless nesting birds. BLD Day 7. Mjoifjordur, Neskaupstadur. This morning explore the lesser known fjords in the north east of Iceland, only accessible by small ship. Make landfall at the small town of Neskaupstadur and visit a local art gallery, the Museum of Natural History and Maritime Museum. Alternatively you can hike to a vantage point offering great views of the surrounding area. BLD Day 8. Hofn. Today we see Europe's largest glacier, the enormous Vatnajokull Glacier, so large it is often called an icecap. The 600 metre thick sheet of ice sits atop active volcanoes, one of which erupted in 1996, gouging out an unusual crater in the ice. Enjoy a guided tour to view the spectacular crater. On return watch icebergs fall into Jokulsarlon Lagoon as you enjoy a seafood lunch. BLD Day 9. Westman Islands. Experience the powerful forces of nature at the Westman Islands. Visit the archipelago's only community, Heimaey, whose residents witnessed the birth of a mountain in 1973 when Eldfell, known as Mount Fire, sprang up overnight burying over 400 homes in volcanic ash and lava. Later circumnavigate Surtsey Island which rose from the sea in 1963. Enjoy a Farewell Dinner tonight. BLD Day 10. Disembark Ship, Depart Reykjavik. Disembark your ship in Reykjavik.
