Message from Adriana Neptuna

Dyrhólaey is like Iceland’s ultimate cliffside drama spot. 🪨 It's a giant arch of black lava rock jutting out into the sea, with waves crashing underneath and endless views of the coastline. It feels like you're standing at the edge of the world.

In summer, the cliffs are buzzing with puffins! 🐧 They nest here from May to August, and you can usually spot them waddling around or chilling on the cliffs.

Also, you get the best views from up here. Look one way, and you’ll see the black sands of Reynisfjara stretching for miles. Look the other, and it’s glaciers, mountains, and endless ocean. It’s wild, windy, and totally worth the stop!
