Reynisfjara Beach

Incredibly beautiful beach with amazing cliffs, birds (Atlantic puffins) and rock formations. Nature at its best. Also a Game of Thrones filming location. Car park costs 1000isk (pay online) and there is a small cafe/restaurant.

See point one: the black sand beach, the black sand beach where the waves are tumbling, is legendary as a place to seal the trolls. In its dark series, there is also a gentle part of it that is integrated, perhaps the red of the sunset. Walking on the beach, rubbing with black sand and stone, making a "sand noise", even the soft stone is love your shape. Waiting slowly, I enjoy the process, the sunset, the coastline, the door of the island in the distance seems to be opened. The tumbling waves, black sand and white foam, and the red sunset, make this ancient lava flow purely natural formation of columnar joints and natural Renes rock add a mystery. See point two: the red-top church in the church town is a landmark building of Vic, nearly 90 years ago, but you can see its full view from the hill, backed by the mountains, facing the sea, and you can see Ren Li on the coast in the distance. Wide view point three: Dijolari to the peninsula mountain top road is more potholes, driving should pay attention to avoid, the end of the mountain top platform is the Dyrhdlaeyjarviti lighthouse; there is also the coastal reef horn (specific arched door) here is also called the island gate. , a good place to watch birds in summer Puffin. Standing above the Dihorari Peninsula facing the sea, the left bank overlooks vik black sand beach and Rennes rock; the right bank is an endless coastline

Iceland's coastline has a shocking feeling [scenery] The sound of the sea beating the shoreline may be because the relationship in the wider and open area is very loud but it reflects the quiet overall feeling [interest] Many people like to drive along the Black Coast in winter ice The snow has not yet turned, it feels very natural [price ratio] but it is still necessary to keep warm and pay attention.

The wreckage is located near the town of Vik in southern Iceland and is one of Iceland's must-check-in attractions. There are two ways to go: drive to the bus station, take the bus or walk to the wreckage location, the other is to participate in the ATV cycling group, we go to the snow in winter, and we will go over a small river, it feels great. The cost is a bit hehehe

Vik Black Beach Vic Black Beach The sand quality here is still very distinctive. It is dark enough to steal it thoroughly. The waves are an attitude and the waves are not restrained. Waves, Waves... When the waves come, run! It's still worth punching in here

The blue lake is beautiful, go in winter, enjoy the feeling of ice and fire. The blue lake is very large, and you can also go to the middle of the lake to apply white volcanic mud. It is said that it has the role of beauty and health. Anyway, go to play. It is very interesting. Don't forget to take a photo with your mobile phone!

Hiking in the vast snow is indeed very difficult here. A pit is stepped on. Sometimes the depth of the snow can be directly higher than the snow boots. There is no certain ice knife. It is difficult to walk, but because there are professionals who lead it relatively well, it is mainly to find here. The ice cave is mainly blue crystals hidden under the ice and snow. Some of them have begun to flow. It makes people feel very incredible. The weather around the whole is not as cold as expected. If it is not windy, it can be tolerated. It is a white patch that is easy to make people dizzy.
