Sólheimasandur

Sólheimasandur is a vast area of sand and gravel along the South Coast of Iceland, between the cliffs of the interior and the modern shoreline. In 1973 the US Navy crashed an airplane on Sólheimasandur. The plane wreck of a DC-3 is still there in the same spot. Sólheimasandur is one of the fastest growing tourist attraction in the Southern part of Iceland.
