Iceland - Vík í Mýrdal

Vik

By @silvia

Vík í Mýrdal is a remote seafront village in south Iceland, with only a few hundred people. It sits between high cliffs and the Atlantic Ocean. The red-roof church on the hill is a popular photo spot and the cliffs of Reynisfjall mountain are home to seabirds such as puffins. Vík is also a good base when traveling the South Coast, as it has food, gas, and hotels.

Address: Vik, Iceland

  • Known for

    Black-sand beaches and a small-town stop.

  • Tips

    Stay for sunset. It's beautiful here.

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.
