Dyrholaey (Dyrhólaey), Iceland - A rock formation is seen on the beach and in the background Reynisdrangar can be seen. Reynisdrangar are basalt sea stacks situated under the mountain Reynisfjall near the village Vík í Mýrdal, southern Iceland. A folk tale says that they are former trolls which were caught outside at dawn. The sea around them is rather wild and stormy and there is a monument to the memory of drowned seamen at the beach. The American journal Islands Magazine counted this beach as one of the ten most beautiful beaches on Earth in 1991.
