Diamond Beach

Icebergs calve from the nearby Breiðamerkurjökull glacier and float in tidal waters to sea, then wash back again in the surf to land on the beach. Here at dawn, waves swirl around icebergs that glitter as the sun rises. The black sand beach is strewn with large chunks of ice that, in the sun, glow like diamonds.
