The Last of Iceland’s South Coast

ByRiana Ang-Canning January 30, 2014January 23, 2024

Before I move onto my new adventure in Amsterdam (!!!), I wanted to finish off with a few last photos of Iceland. I was able to go on an amazing tour of Iceland’s south coast, take in spectacular views of Reykjavik and go on two freezing and failed Northern Lights tours in my last few days.

Without further ado:

The front of the Seljalandsfoss waterfalls

The famous Icelandic horses! (Not ponies, that’s offensive)

Riana standing in front of Skogafoss waterfall — 60 metre tall Skogafoss waterfalls!

Skogafoss Waterfall in Iceland — Another view of Skogafoss! You could walk right up to the bottom of the falls!

Waves on Reynisfjara Beach in Iceland — The waves at Reynisfjara were so powerful! And the wind was so crazy, we had to walk backwards or else get pebbles to the face.

Cave on Reynisfjara black sand beach in Iceland — Reynisfjara, famous for its black sand beach, is also home to a wicked cave!

Solheimajokull glacier in Iceland — The Solheimajokull glacier!

Pieces of ice on Solheimajokull glacier — More from the gorgeous glacier we got to explore

Sunset over Reykjavik. My view from the wraparound deck of the Perlan building.
