Sjávarfoss

Hraunfossar
Unlike any other waterfall in Iceland. Water seeps through a lava field and emerges as hundreds of small rivulets pouring into the turquoise Hvítá river. Stretches for nearly a kilometer. Right next to Barnafoss - do both. Easy access, parking lot nearby. The colors in autumn are incredible.
Rjúkandafoss
Tall narrow waterfall in East Iceland. Name means 'smoking falls'. Remote location.
Lambárfoss
Tucked away in West Iceland. The area around here has tons of these hidden gems if you take time to look.
Kleppagilsfoss
West Iceland cascade. Less famous than the south coast falls, but that just means fewer selfie sticks in your photos.
Glymur
Iceland's second tallest at 198 meters. Getting there is an adventure - cave passage, river crossing, steep climb. Not for everyone, but if you're up for it, the reward is massive. The hike takes 3-4 hours round trip. Bring good shoes and don't attempt in bad weather. Worth every step.
Barnafoss
Children's Falls. Named after a tragic legend of two boys who fell while crossing a natural stone bridge here. The bridge collapsed long ago. Today the river rushes through a narrow rocky channel in brilliant blue. Right next to Hraunfossar - do both.
Staur
West Iceland cascade. Less famous than the south coast falls, but that just means fewer selfie sticks in your photos.
Brúarfoss
The bluest waterfall in Iceland. Seriously, the color is almost unreal. Not big, but the turquoise water cascading through the rocks is pure magic. Best on overcast days when the blue really pops.

Kirkjufellsfoss

The Golden Waterfall. Two massive drops into a rugged canyon, with the river seeming to disappear into the earth. On sunny days the mist creates golden rainbows - that's how it got the name. Part of the Golden Circle, so expect crowds. But honestly? It's worth it. The power here is something else. Stand on the viewing platform and feel the ground shake.

Háifoss
One of Iceland's tallest at 122 meters. Located in a dramatic canyon with its smaller neighbor Granni right beside it. You'll need a 4x4 to get close, then a short hike to the viewpoint. Remote, uncrowded, and absolutely worth the effort. The scale is hard to grasp until you're standing there.
Lambafossar
Svavar Sigurðsson: "...ekki var minnst á hvað fossarnir hétu og þótti mér það miður. Ég fór á stúfana og spurði menn sem ég taldi kunnuga en fátt var um svör. Ármann á Steinsstöðum gat nefnt tvo fossa og hafði nöfnin á þeim eftir Sigurði sem kenndur var við Tryggvaskála hér á Skaga, en hann var nákunnugur þessu svæði. Þau nöfn eru vafalaust rétt. Það voru nöfnin Kúafoss og Háifoss og síðan fékk ég nöfnin Gljúfurfoss og Lambafossar annars staðar hvort sem þau eru nú rétt eða ekki."
