About Dyrhólaey Arch & Viewpoint
Dyrhólaey, meaning 'Door Hill Island,' is a 120-meter high promontory featuring a spectacular natural arch large enough for boats to sail through. The lighthouse-topped cliff offers panoramic views of Reynisfjara black beach, Reynisdrangar sea stacks, and the glaciers of Mýrdalsjökull. In summer, the cliffs host thriving puffin colonies, making it one of Iceland's best puffin viewing spots.
