Dyrholaey, is located not far from the town of Vik. The drive up to the cliff carpark is a little bit windy and narrow, especially when you have two cars trying to pass each other. When you get to the top, you do get a pretty good view of Dyrholaey Arch and the expansive black sand beaches. As we arrived in the area late in the afternoon, the light was great for photography (even better in Vik, more on that in future blog posts). The Dyrholaey lighthouse is a century old building, impressive and stoic. It has the staple Icelandic lighthouse architecture.
