Iceland 🇮🇸, Hvitserkur Rock

Hvitserkur Rock is one of the many natural attractions of Iceland. This is not an ordinary rock. The fact is that it is almost flat like a Sail rock in Gelendzhik, but looks like a prehistoric stone monster lurking in the water waiting for prey.

The rock is located 60 meters from the coast of the Vatnness peninsula in the northwestern part of Iceland in the waters of Huna Bay.

In summer, birds nest on the rock, giving the stone monster shades of life.

It is noteworthy that during low tide you can come close to the rock. In summer, it is worth considering aggressive Arctic terns. There are a lot of them in Iceland at this time, and usually these birds attack anything that violates their territory.

Scientists believe that the rock was once a plug in the mouth of a volcano. Over time, the softer rocks collapsed, leaving only a dense layer of frozen volcanic lava in memory.
