We drove along Rauðasandur until the road ended at a beautiful little, black church with a stone courtyard wall and lambs playing on the lush grass around it.

It All Started In Iceland... 
I loved that black church! Actually found the beach a bit of a letdown and have lots more photos of the church.
Haha I kindof agree. All the descriptions insist that is is red….but it is no such thing. We saw it at a beautiful time of day, so it was definitely worth the visit, but the serene spot at the end was the best part. I think it would have been a better visit if it wasn’t so hyped up as this spectacular site.
Yes! Couldn’t agree more, especially given the amount of effort to get there.
One of my favourite Icelandic churches, too!
