Winter visit, so lighthouse closed. Beautiful view of the black beach and Dyrhólaey. Car parking available with well maintained toilets. Excellent views. Access to beach only when not dangerous to do so.

Wish I visited a couple months earlier. All the puffins were gone at this time. I can't believe they live in the ocean. What a life! It was fiercely windy but so cool. Such a spectacular view of the black sand beach and white ocean spray.

Really cool spot! I recommend checking it out. The trail is relatively easy and provides a 360 view of the coastline. Definitely bundle up if you are coming during the winter months as it can get very cold and windy.

If you want to visit somewhere that makes you audibly gasp at the view then this is it. Huge thanks to my tour guide group, Nice Travel Iceland for bringing me to this spot, it was one of the highlights of my entire trip to Iceland.

If you came to Iceland to meet the puffins - look no further, this is the place! The close ups one manages here are NOT available with any boat tour that are populating the harbour side. Unique experience. Breathtaking nature sceneries as an add-on. Easily reachable with a car from Reykjavik. All free of charge.

Amazing views! I love the elephant!
Personally, I think that at the count of Monte Cristo was going to hide a treasure somewhere in Iceland, this would probably be where it is.
Lovely walk. Fun drive up to the top!

So beautiful: views of the ocean, the beach, the mountains, the glacier. I could have watched the crazy waves all day - they look like they are in slo mo!

Beautiful cliff near the Black Sand Beach with puffins and a light house and free parking, but few spots. You can get very close to puffins to take pictures and even closer if they land near. Aside from puffins you can take very scenic pictures of the beach, moutains and other cliffs. Overall, would recommend!

Incredibly beautiful, we visited while it was raining and windy and the area gave an incredibly moody vibe. The cliffs are beautiful, we didn’t see any puffins in September but still worth the visit.

Must visit if you’re passing!
It looks almost like you’re driving into the sea but you make it across to a hill with great views.
There are two spots, the higher one to the right is more impressive but the lower one is also nice. If short for time do the higher one and drive down to the lower one also, or longer hikes available but quite steep.
All free parking.

One of the most beautiful places on earth! Spectacular views! A must visit.

Amazing experience. The cave like structures and the rocks that looked like basalt columns are real wonders. We tried climbing the rocks which was fun. It's a black sand beach. A real good spot for hiking. A must visit place. Car parking is pretty close by and free.

Dyrholaey is a huge cliff that looks over the south beach of Iceland. The cliff provides wonderful views of the north sea, the rocks and the cliffs and the black sand beaches around. On top of the cliff there is a lighthouse that can be seen miles away. Part of the cliff is wheelchair accessible and there is a fee WC.

Very beautiful place, be prepared for wind and rain, will be short and sun could come out again, rocky shorelines were outstanding with beautiful black beaches

Beautiful place, we got a bit unlucky with the weather but it was totally worth it. Saw tons of seabirds, a fox, and quite a lot of puffins ( though most were out at sea). We saw puffins at both the east and west side of the peninsula but there were definitely more close to the lighthouse. There are restrooms (for a fee, payable by card, very clean) at the eastern side parking lot

Free parking( usual mostly in Iceland) , great view on endless beach, mountains- highly recommended.

We were here at high tide so did not get to see the entire arch. Lovely area, easy way from parking

Super clean bathroom. Excellent view. A must see

Amazing place! Stunning views to the Black Beach, cliffs and the glacier. It is a must. Be prepared for strong winds. Paved road leads to the top of a hill with a lighthouse. There is a free parking lot. There are walking paths all around the place. They lead to the lower parking, which has toilets and where you can look for puffins.
