Vík


The village of Vík is the southernmost village in Iceland.

A remarkable nearby feature is the beautiful black beach with the Reynisdrangar, black basalt columns sculpted by the sea. A folk tale says that they are former trolls which were caught outside at dawn. In 1991, The American journal Island Magazine counted this beach as one of the ten most beautiful beaches on Earth. The village is the wettest place in Iceland.
