About @derfabios

I love getting lost in decadent beautiful cities and discovering underrated destinations. I'm interested in everything about cultures, architecture, art, design, foreign languages and food. I would define myself as a moderate edonist: I cannot escape to the charm of beauty in every form. Sunset spots, curated homes, romantic views and nostalgic vibes are my jam.

A designated beach area where tourists are legally allowed to wear swimwear (bikinis/trunks), as modest dress is required elsewhere on local islands.

Höfn, Sveitarfélagið Hornafjörður, Iceland

A black sand beach across from Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon. Icebergs drift out, wash back in, and land on the shore. The ocean polishes the ice so it glitters like diamonds on jet black sand.

Vik, Mýrdalshreppur, Iceland

Reynisfjara Beach

Jagged rocks jutting from the sea just off this black sand beach with basalt formations. The black volcanic sand gives a surreal vibe, the cliffs are wild and cinematic, raw and beautiful. Incredible photo opportunities. Easy access, and in season this is where to see puffins in Iceland on the hill.

Höfn, Sveitarfélagið Hornafjörður, Iceland

Unique and pretty experience. Small glacier pieces washed ashore on the black sand, like diamonds in the waves. Even with tourists around it is worth it. Wildlife and ice together, incredible peacefulness, one of my favorite spots around the island.

Höfn, Sveitarfélagið Hornafjörður, Iceland

Diamond Beach has black sand with chunks of ice that have drifted from Jökulsárlón and washed ashore. The contrast of clear ice and dark volcanic sand is beautiful. It can get a little crowded, but walk a bit further along the beach for quiet spots.

Vik, Mýrdalshreppur, Iceland

Reynisfjara Beach

Reynisfjara is the most famous black volcanic sand beach in Iceland. It has tall basalt columns, unique rock formations, a cave in the cliffs, and the Reynisdrangar sea stacks rising from the sea. The waves are very strong and dangerous, so it is important to stay well back from the water.

This beautiful black sand beach has pieces of iceberg drifting ashore. A must stop area, as the contrast between the clear ice and the dark shore is amazing.

Vesturbyggð, Iceland

This beach’s sand has an amazing yellow color. The drive here is a little steep and curvy, so be careful. If you’re lucky, you can see seals here.

Reynisfjara Beach

This black volcanic sand beach with basalt rocks is super unique. The waves are pretty dangerous, so be careful.
