Black Sand Beach
Iceland
Reynisfjara, rated one of the ten most beautiful beaches in the world, is stunning black sand basalt beach near Vik. It is also one of the most dangerous due to the powerful waves that can arrive with little warning that have swept numerous people away. It is also one of the wettest places in Iceland, as a result of the cool winds of the arctic meeting the warmer Gulf Stream waters near here. Photo © copyright by Ed Fuhr.
