Jokulsarlon (lit. "Glacier Lagoon") is situated in south eastern Iceland, at the head of the Brei�amerkurj�kull, just East of Skaftafell National Park. It evolved into a lagoon after the glacier started receding from the edge of the Atlantic Ocean. The lagoon, which is 200 m deep (approx 600 ft), has grown since then because of melting of the Icelandic glaciers. The lagoon now stands 1.5 kilometres (0.93 mi) away from the ocean's edge and covers an area of about 18 km2 (6.9 sq mi). Its size has increased fourfold since the 1970s. The Glacier lagoon is considered as one of the natural wonders of Iceland.
