Iceland Stapavík view
This location can easily be missed when driving along the East Coast of Iceland but it is a must-stop! Have a break here and go down to the beach (a bit of easy climbing involved) but stay away from the shore since the waves can be dangerous.
Photography Tips
I used my drone for this epic selfie to create a sense of scale in the scenery. It can be windy on this side of Iceland, so don't lose your drone and adjust the compass before starting to fly!
