Elephants Rock

When we were traveling the Vestmannaeyjar island in Iceland, one of the locations on the Heimaey island I wanted to see was a place called Elephants Rock. It is located in the western part of this island and can be seen as a cliff that reaches into the water. I think I don't really need to explain why it's called Elephants Rock, just look at the photos. 😅

Did you see it ? I think you did!

Walking along the coast, you can see a lot of other cool landscape features too. For example, this cool-looking hill that looks like a crater. A golf course can also be found in this place.

Here you can see Alsey and Brandur islands in the west, out on the ocean.

Sure enough, some Puffins can be found on the coastal cliffs in the area. What a cool birds they are.

That is actually a huge rock I must confess and looking so adorable

Quite a huge one yeah but there are much bigger coastal cliffs around.

The puffins are so cute! The closer picture definitely helps see the elephant face much better.

Lol, yeah, small penguins 😀

Birds are looking very similar to penguins. Very cute and the place was beautiful and stunning clicks.

By going to such beautiful places, it seems that one has entered heaven, all these mountains are looking very beautiful and one is very happy to see the natural scenery.
