Stokksnes, located in Southeast Iceland, is a stunning mountain with peaks reaching up to 454 meters and surrounded by black sand beaches. It's a favorite among photographers for its stark natural beauty. The area has a rich history dating back to the 9th Century and was a strategic location during World War Two. Just over an hour's drive from Jökulsárlón glacier lagoon, Stokksnes offers a peaceful and isolated charm that captures the essence of Iceland's rugged beauty. Just remember, there's a small entrance fee to access the private beach.
