Fauskasandur Black Sand Beach in East Iceland is a hidden gem with its unique black sand and massive rock formation. Less crowded than other popular black sand beaches, Fauskasandur offers visitors a chance to explore the dark shoreline, dip their toes in the pristine water, and feel the volcanic sand beneath their feet. Whether you visit in summer for long walks under the midnight sun or in winter for the striking contrast between snow and sand, Fauskasandur is a must-see spot for nature lovers and photographers alike.
