Yup! One of the most photographed cliff on the South coast of Iceland. Hard to miss when your’e on your way to the famous glacier lagoon. Exactly 174km, 2hr and 18min coming from Reykjavik. Coordinates 63°24’05.3″N 19°07’51.6”W near the town of Vik.
You get stunning views of the south coast plus overlooking Reynisfjara beach. Vik Town is a popular stop between Reykjavik and Jokulsarlon, so if you want to break your trip, spend a couple of nights there. A lot of well known-picturesque spots nearby. Just to name a few, the Reynisfjara Beach and Reynisdrangar (10mins. away), two waterfalls the Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss (less than an hour away).
Came here for sunset, literally chased the light. Running from one edge towards another. First, took a couple facing the sun for an awesome sunstar, then ran towards the back of the lighthouse facing west, took a couple. Then ran again back to the car, drove down to a lower vantage point for a shot with the peculiar sea-stack facing the Reynisfjara beach.
My most favorite shot from that day was taken at the back of the lighthouse. Loving how the burning sun lit up this massive 120-metre high promontory arc. Can you spot the brave ones? Feel free to share!
