The coach peels away from Reykjavík and the world opens into a northern coastline of basalt cliffs, thunderous waterfalls and black sand stretching to the horizon. On a private South Coast tour you stand beneath Seljalandsfoss as water pours in a wide curtain, mist licking your jacket; later, Skógafoss roars with a postcard-perfect plume and rainbows that seem to follow you along the river's edge. Reynisfjara’s black beach presents basalt columns and wave-sculpted stacks while the Atlantic dares you to come closer.
