Wonders of Snæfellsnes Peninsula in the West of Iceland. Djupalonssandur (Deep Lagoon's Sand) black pebbles beach and Snæfellsjökull Volcano (immense mountain, active central volcano in the background at 01:46, setting for Jules Verne´s novel Journey to the Center of Earth), west Iceland. The name Sands of Deep Lagoon derives from a small greenish lagoon in the lavafield (seen at 01:44 in video) which is not actually deep at all (17 m) as ancients imagined. Scattered iron pieces - shipwreck of British fishing vessel from Grimsby who stranded here in storm some decades ago (most of crew perished). On the beach at 01:00 you also find "fishermen rocks" (lifting those was a type of entertainment) as there was a summer fishing station there. At 06:15 "Singing Cliff" from which "singing" had been heard in past.
