Mirela Ćenanović
"Rauðasandur beach or Red Sands beach is a beautiful red beach in a very remote area in the Westfjords of Iceland. Most beaches in Iceland are black, but the beaches in the Westfjords are golden or pink.
The roads in this part of the Westfjords are not paved. The road leading to Rauðasandur is a gravel road, winding and steep so drive slowly. "

"This beach is really beautiful. And the detour is super worth it not only to see the beach, but to see the road which is amazing, too (specially if you have a drone), when you go you'll understand why. "

"This is one of the golden sand beaches in Iceland. It's kind of rare to see a non-black sand beach in Iceland."
