Iceland's Volcanic Eruptions Made These Beautiful Black-Sand Beaches

We would have booked ourselves a ticket to Iceland if we knew that it had beautiful black sandy beaches such as this one. This is just one of Iceland's many unique landscapes. Seriously, that country has it all - volcanoes, waterfalls, black beaches, steamy geyzers. It's almost as if it were imported from an alien planet. Iceland's definitely one of the most unique countries in the world in terms of scenery.

As it turns out, the sand on this beach turned black due to all of the violent volcanic eruptions that have taken place over the years on the island.
