Solheimasandur Plane Wreck
The ocean with dramatic and cool waves is in walking distance from the wreck so if you have extra time then that is something I also recommend.
Landmannalaugar
Landmannalaugar is a place in the Fjallabak Nature Reserve in the Highlands of Iceland. It is at the edge of Laugahraun lava field, which was formed in an eruption around the year 1477.
Keldur Turf House
The historical buildings at Keldur are the oldest house in Iceland. It was the home of the Viking Ingjaldur and it has alot of history from the last war of Iceland.
Reynisfjara Beach
Reynisfjall is a 340 m high tuff mountain arising out of a volcanic eruption from under a glacier in the penultimate Ice Age, near the village of Vik. Alternating in an irregular manner are layers of tuff, pillow lava and columnar basalt veins and loops.
