WOW, this stunning black volcanic sandy beach is one of Iceland's top tourist attractions if not THE main one and you can see why.

Huge icebergs drop off the glacier and into the lagoon before they slowly make there way under the road bridge and out into the Atlantic ocean before being thrown onto the beach ready to be photographed by millions of photographers. Except this time round a couple of weeks ago, there was not too many shooters on hand and we were able to walk around the various gorgeous glistening icebergs that sit idly on the beach until the next big wave comes in and repositions them.

Here is an image I captured during the last throws of light for the day before driving back to Vik for the night. As tough as Iceland was to get around due to the huge snow blizzards, 90mph winds and numerous road closures, the scenery was outstanding and I never wanted to leave once my week finished.
