Tips from the community

Stokksnes—also known as Vestrahorn— is one of the most stunning locations in all of Iceland, which is a pretty tough title to earn. The backdrop of Vestrahorn, the massive mountain onsite, makes this place a landscape photographer’s dream. With rigid black peaks, strikingly dark sand, and a contrastingly blue lagoon, Stokksnes is a must for every Iceland bucket list.
