Elephant Rock is a cool natural rock formation on Heimaey Island in Iceland. It looks like an elephant, hence the name! this unique formation has hexagonal columns and caves carved by ocean waves over time. People love visiting Elephant Rock because, well, who wouldn't want to see a rock that looks like an elephant?
