Reynisdrangar basalt sea stacks situated under the Reynisfjall mountain near the village Vík í Mýrdal, southern Iceland.
Seljalandsfoss waterfall of the river Seljalandsá drops 60 metres (200 ft) over the cliffs.
Jökulsárlón is a large glacial lake in southeast Iceland, on the edge of Vatnajökull National Park. Situated at the head of the Breiðamerkurjökull glacier, it developed into a lake after the glacier started receding from the edge of the Atlantic Ocean. The lake has grown since then at varying rates because of melting of the glaciers. It is now 1.5 kilometres away from the ocean's edge and covers an area of about 18 km2 (6.9 sq miles). It recently became the deepest lake in Iceland, at over 248 metres (814 ft), as the glacial retreat extended its boundaries. The size of the lake has increased fourfold since the 1970s. Jökulsárlón has been a setting for four films: A View to a Kill, Die Another Day, Tomb Raider and Batman Begins.
