Dyrhólaey peninsula is the southernmost tip of Iceland. There is a road to the top of the peninsula and the view from the top is magnificent. To the east is a view to Reynisfjara, to the vest is endless black sand beach, to the south is the Atlantic ocean where you might spot whales and to north is a great view to Eyjafjallajökull and Katla.

Dyrhólaey stretches into the sea with huge cliffs and one with a gigantic hole in it and one of the iconic photo perspectives in Iceland.

During the summer months there are thousands of puffins and other sea birds in the cliffs and slopes of Dyrhólaey.

Location the South Coast on road no 218, between Hvolsvöllur ( 75 km / 46,8 mi) and Vík (19 km / 11,8 mi)
