One thing that is quite iconic for Iceland is its' black sand/rock beaches. However, we do have some red sand beaches! Rauðisandur Beach is my favourite one! Located in the Westfjords, Rauðisandur is a generally stunning setting. Surrounded by black tall mountains, the yellow/red sand contrasts beautifully with the Atlantic ocean. There is also a great café there and a campsite!
