The basalt columns at Reynisfjara Beach are an impressive artwork of nature. Most of the hexagon-shaped columns are parallel, straight and symmetrical. Although their reach exceeds 200 feet, they have natural platforms at intermittent levels. Tourists delight in climbing to these seats while having their photo taken and then enjoying an elevated perspective of the seascape. This uncharacteristic, fan-like display is above the Hálsanefshellir sea cave. They resemble pipe organs above a church entrance.
