Diamond beach is quite possibly my favourite place on earth, if you have time, make sure you carve out some time to go here.

Diamonds (icebergs) glisten, glimmer and glow on on the beach after being washed up to shore from Jökulsárlón glacier lagoon.

The Diamond Beach in South-East Iceland is a stunning stretch of black sand dotted with glistening icebergs that have washed ashore from the nearby Jökulsárlón glacier lagoon. This magical beach, just a stone's throw away from the lagoon, offers a mesmerizing contrast of crystal-clear ice against volcanic sand. Visitors can spot seals lounging around and capture breathtaking photos of this natural wonder. Whether you're basking in the Midnight Sun during summer or chasing the Northern Lights in winter, the Diamond Beach promises an unforgettable experience for nature lovers and photographers alike.
