Day 4 Iceland Road Trip: Hella to Vik

📍 Dyrhólaey A vantage point overlooking the famous Reynisfjara Black Sand Beach—perfect for capturing its full grandeur. 📍 Loftsalahellir Cave A hidden gem discovered on Xiaohongshu! This photogenic cave requires a steep climb (wear grippy hiking shoes 🥾). The shots are so worth it. 📍 Reynisfjara Black Sand Beach Yes, Iceland has many black beaches, but this one’s iconic for a reason: endless volcanic sand, basalt columns, and eerie sea stacks. Overcast skies = instant apocalyptic vibes ☠️. We got sunshine instead, so we returned the next day for moody shots! 📍 Vík’s Red-Roofed Church The best photo spot is the hill behind the church. In June, it’s blanketed in purple lupine flowers—a dreamy contrast with the scarlet roof. P.S. Try Vík’s "black crust" pizza—unexpectedly delicious! 🏨 Stay: Black Beach Suites Just 5 minutes from the beach, with rooms offering distant views of the volcanic sands. #Hella#Dyrhólaey#Black Sand Beach Reynisfjara#Reynisfjara Beach# Loftsalahellir Cave#Iceland#travel guide
