Vík í Mýrdal is Iceland's southernmost village and one of the most dramatic places on the island, where pitch-black lava beaches meet the roaring Atlantic waves. The famous Reynisfjara beach, with its powerful basalt columns and the Reynisdrangar sea stacks that rise like petrified trolls from the surf, is considered one of the most beautiful non-tropical beaches in the world. German travelers to Iceland on the Ring Road stop here to experience the surreal landscape that has served as a film set for Game of Thrones and Star Wars. Above the tiny village with its iconic white church looms the Mýrdalsjökull glacier, under which the feared volcano Katla lies dormant. The puffin colonies on the cliffs of Dyrhólaey are a magical natural spectacle in summer. Despite its remoteness, Vík offers cozy accommodations and surprisingly good restaurants.
