Reynisfjara is as wild as it is beautiful. Please take some important precautions when visiting, otherwise you may put yourself in danger:
Don’t even think about swimming. The beauty of Reynisfjara is in its wild and rugged drama. Swimming here would be incredibly dangerous.
Watch out for sneaker waves. These are waves that can sneak up on you with serious speed and strength. Keep an eye on the sea at all times.
Come prepared with the right gear and clothing. Sturdy shoes, a waterproof jacket, and warm layers are all essential.
Please don’t climb. Climbing is not permitted on Reynisfjara or on the surrounding cliffs or sea stacks. It can be very dangerous and must be avoided.
