Home Of The Winds

February, and a farm nestles at the foot of Hlíðarfjall. This 1116m/3660ft high mountain is better known from the other side as it stands above Akureyri, and contains the ski slopes.

Black Beauty

The volcanic sands of Reynisfjara, near Vík í Mýrdal in southern #Iceland.

This strand regularly features in lists of "World's Top Beaches" due to its cleanliness, water quality and sheer loveliness.
If it was rated for swimming and sunbathing, it would get 0/10 every time!

The basalt stump in the centre is Arnardrangur (Eagle Rock) and in the distance are the famous Reynisdrangar.
