Vykurfjara beach is a beach with black sand

Vikurfjara beach is one of the most famous and beautiful black sand beaches in Iceland and the world.

The black sand on this beach was formed as a result of thousands of years of erosion of lava and basalt rocks under the influence of water and wind, which gives the beach its unique appearance.

It is located near the village of Vík, on the southern coast of Iceland. The beach is also famous for its majestic basalt columns and rocks, such as Reynisdrangar rising from the ocean.

However, it is worth noting that this place is known for its strict character: waves on this coast can be dangerous for tourists, and local residents call them killer waves.

The alien landscapes of the beach became a filming site for famous films, including “Star Wars”.
