Get away from it all in Látrabjarg, West Fjords, Iceland

If you love getting away from it all, hiking in Látrabjarg, West Fjords, Iceland, is ideal. Europe’s most westerly point, it is in one of the most remote areas of this volcanic island.

The breeding ground of tons of seabirds, including puffins, gannets, guillemots and razorbills, the towering cliffs are not only breathtaking but are a bird photographer’s paradise.

Nearby, you’ll also find a gorgeous beach, Rauðasandur, that’s tinted red from seashells.

My 4 favourite Hawaii beaches

The Hawaii Islands have hundreds of breathtaking beaches. They range from white sand to black with every shade of yellow in between. You’ll even find red sand and green sand beaches.

But I’ve managed to narrow it down to 4 off-the-beaten path Hawaii beaches, one on each island that I’ve visited.

Favourite experience on my one-day Iceland stopover

On a recent one-day Iceland stopover, I rented a car and toured the Reykjanes Peninsula. One of two solo trips to Iceland in less than a month, I had created an itinerary of all the sights I wanted to see. The recently active Fagradalsfjall volcano, in the Geldingadalur Valley, was one of the main sights I wanted to see. What I didn’t expect was for it to become the highlight of my Reykjanes Peninsula tour and my favourite experience on my one-day Iceland stopover.
