Amazing platform to look down to the beach . Be aware and careful, the waves can be as high as the highest platform and the stones are slippery. So don't go too close to the edges.

The best thing my eyes have ever experienced. Huge waves from the Atlantic Ocean crashing on the black sand beaches as far as the eye can see.

Michael Fuchs

Not to be missed. For our 4x4 campervan the dirtroad up the hill was no issue. You get to see lots of seabirds, the lighthouse , the famous black beach and coastline from above and the pierced rock.

Ali Al-Hamidah

Breathtaking view and you can see a lot of puffins on the cliff

My most favorite place in Iceland ! The view is fantastic

One of my fav spots in Iceland ! Could stay for hours watching the waves crash.

Awesome spot above the sea with great views over Reynisfjara towards the Reynisdrangar basalt columns.
