What To Expect

Seljalandsfoss

Seljalandsfoss Waterfall is a spectacular natural wonder . What makes this waterfall unique is the fact that visitors can actually walk behind the cascading water, providing an unforgettable and immersive experience. The waterfall is approximately 60 meters high and is fed by a glacier river originating from the Eyjafjallajökull volcano. The water falls into a shallow pool, which is surrounded by lush greenery and rocky cliffs. The constant spray from the waterfall creates a misty atmosphere, which often produces stunning rainbows. Aside from walking behind the waterfall, visitors can also hike along the surrounding trails to get a better view of the waterfall and the surrounding scenery. The area is known for its diverse flora and fauna, including various bird species, wildflowers, and mosses. Nearby attractions include the Gljúfrafoss waterfall,

Dyrholaey

Dyrhólaey is a stunning promontory located on the south coast of Iceland. The promontory was formed during a volcanic eruption about 100,000 years ago. It is made up of alternating layers of lava and ash, which have eroded over time to create the distinctive shape of the cliffs. Dyrhólaey is also home to a lighthouse, which was built in 1910 and is still in operation today. The lighthouse offers stunning views of the surrounding landscape, including the nearby Reynisfjara black sand beach and the Mýrdalsjökull glacier. One of the key attractions at Dyrhólaey is the natural rock arch that spans the sea, known as the Dyrhólaey Arch. Visitors can hike to the top of the promontory and enjoy breathtaking views of the arch and the surrounding coastline. Another popular activity at Dyrhólaey is bird-watching. The promontory is home to a variety of seabirds, including puffins, guillemots, and kittiwakes. Visitors can observe these birds in their natural habitat from designated viewing areas.

Reynisfjara Beach

Reynisfjara beach is known for its unique black sand, basalt columns, and powerful waves. The geological history of the beach dates back to thousands of years ago when volcanic eruptions occurred in the area leading to the formation of the black sand. The basalt columns were formed by cooling lava flows, which later eroded into their current shape due to the constant pounding of the waves. Reynisfjara Black Sand Beach is famous for the basalt sea stacks that rise out of the ocean. These formations are known as Reynisdrangar and are said to be the remains of two trolls who were trying to drag a three-masted ship to shore but were turned to stone by the rising sun. Visitors to the beach can enjoy a scenic walk along the black sand, take in the stunning views of the sea stacks, and watch the powerful waves crash against the shore. It is important to note that the waves at Reynisfjara are known for their strength and visitors should exercise caution when exploring the beach.
