5. ReynisfjaraHow do these rankings work?

This is one of the most popular spots for tourists to visit in Iceland. The wild beach has black volcanic sand but the real magical photo spot are the rocks that have been carved by the ocean over the centuries.

6. Sólheimasandur

Back in 1973 when the Americans had an air base, here this DC-3 plane crashed (luckily everybody on board survived). It now provides a truly unique Iceland Instagram shot but you’ll want to get here early to avoid the crowds. You can read more about the plane here.

7. Svinafellsjokull Glacier

They don’t call it Iceland for no reason. It’s an incredible place to come and not only capture a unique and creative picture but also for a magical sense of peace and quiet.
