Icelandic Black Sand Beach II

Description
Despite clouds and rain during the day, there was clearing enough close to sunset to provide beautiful color in the sky at Reynisfjara, a world-famous black-sand beach on the South Coast of Iceland. Reynisfjara is widely considered to be the most beautiful example of Iceland’s black sand beaches. It has enormous basalt stacks, hexagonal-shaped basalt columns, stunning lava formations, towering cliffs, and basalt caves. Seen from above, the black sand strikes a perfect contrast against the white foam of the waves. Black sand beaches arise from volcanic ashes. When molten lava enters the water, a violent interaction occurs between the hot lava and the sea water. The lava cools down so rapidly that it breaks into debris and sand instantly. A huge amount of lava flow entering the ice-cold sea at once may create a new black sand beach in a matter of hours! Reynisfjara was formed during one of the major eruptions of the nearby Katla volcano.
