Iceland Reynisdrangar Sea Cliffs

Iconics black basalt sea stacks, located on a black sand beach near Vík í Mýrdal, South Coast of Iceland.
Very famous place near the circular road n°1, which could be very crowded during the high season. Beautiful shoreline with great wildlife around.

Patience is the best tip for this spot I can offer you if you go there during the daytime in the high season (June-August). If you want to shoot a picture without people everywhere with flashy jackets, or someone else trying to climb the huge basalt rock on the beach for a perfect portrait, you have to grin and bear it ;) like everywhere, sunrise or sunset is the best time to capture great light and colours, but hoping to be alone on the beach is one more argument. I guess the winter season is calmer. Anyway, it's a place not to be missed.

Additional remark: as Manuel Becker mentioned: "this spot can be pretty dangerous if you don't pay attention to the level of the water. I heard that people died around here because they got caught by the water, which can get pretty high towards the cliffs of the beach during tide as far as I know."

On the circular road n°1, take the road n°215 until the parking lot, et voilà!
