Please log in or sign up for free to see the GPS coordinates & weather for this photo spot

One of the most famous places in the south of Iceland is Reynisfjara Beach. It impresses with deep black sand, a frequently rough sea, sea stacks surrounded by seagulls and large black bastalt columns.

Photography Tips

Use the time in the morning to reinvent yourself. For example, we used Walke Talkies to capture the place in a new way by walking about 1 kilometer along the beach and my brother positioned himself near the basalt columns. Used 500mm tele lens here. A red jacket created a good contrast.

Travel Information

There is a public parking lot right next to the beach. From there it is only a few meters to the beach. Pay particular attention to the strong currents and dangerous waves! Study them a little and be careful from the vicinity!
