The South Coast of Iceland is a land of contrasts. First of all, with volcanoes hidden under glaciers, and traces of their past activity visible everywhere, you will understand why Iceland is nicknamed "The land of Fire and Ice".

But the contrast can also be seen in the colors of the South Coast. The Whiteness of the glaciers constantly meets the blackness of the volcanic sands and ashes, with Sólheimajökull being the best example of it. Only colors on this black canvas come from the green moss and the blue ocean.

    Seljalandsfoss

    Seljalandsfoss is among the most famous and most visited waterfalls in Iceland, and a must-see on the South Coast. 60m high, the unique feature of this waterfall is the cave located behind it. Thanks to this cave, you have the opportunity to walk behind and around the waterfall. This is a wonderful experience. Please note that in the wintertime, the path behind the waterfall can be closed for safety reasons, but the waterfall itself can still be visited.

    30 minutes Admission ticket included
  • Volcano Eyjafjallajokull (Pass by)

    The volcano of Eyjafjajökull, covered by a glacier, is located just a few kilometers away from the road and visible on a clear day. It is the volcano that erupted in 2010, and blew so much ash in the air that air traffic over Europe had to come to a complete stop.

    Skogafoss

    Just like the one with visited before, Skógafoss is in the top 5 of the most famous and visited waterfalls in Iceland. Which is a very good rank considering we have over 10 thousand named waterfalls in the country and even more unnamed ones. It is also 60m high, but much more powerful than the previous one. With stairs located next to it, you can climb your way up to a viewing platform to see it from the top, or choose to see it from ground level and feel all its power!

    Solheimajokull Glacier

    Around 11 percent of Iceland is covered with ice. Glaciers are exceptional creations of nature. Sólheimajökull is actually an outlet glacier coming from the ice cap named Mýrdalsjökull. It is partially covered with volcanic ashes, giving it a distinctive look. The walk to the viewpoint is easy and takes about 10-15 minutes one way.

    35 minutes Admission ticket included

    Reynisfjara Beach

    Almost all the beaches in Iceland are made out of black sand, but when people talk about the black sand beach, as if there was only one in the country, this is the one they are talking about. Cliffs, sea stacks, basaltic organs, caves and more. All of it on one beach.

    1 hour Admission ticket free
