Dyrhólaey

By @silvia

Dyrhólaey is a 120-meter high peninsula with steep cliffs, a huge natural arch, and a lighthouse that sits at the top. From there you can see black sand beaches, Reynisdrangar sea stacks, and sometimes puffins nesting in summer. It’s volcanic, raw and beautiful.

Address: 871, Iceland

  • Known for

    Beautiful views and puffins.

  • Tips

    Try to visit in summer (May-September) when birdlife is active. If possible, go early morning or late afternoon for softer light and fewer people.

About @silvia

Every place whispers its story; its cafés, galleries, backstreets, and the animals that live there. My maps are small love letters to culture and to the lives I quietly watch unfold.
