Reynisfjara Beach in Iceland was recently named the best beach in the world by Tripadvisor. But the volcanic black sand beach can be extremely dangerous.<\/p>\n

In the video posted by Reddit user ‘Two_Inches_Of_Fun’, the four tourists appear to approach the water in order to take a photo in front of the waves.<\/p>\n

However, a wave quickly comes and knocks two of the tourists to the ground. The pair struggle to get out of the water.<\/p>\n

Luckily, the tourists all made it out of the water but it was an extremely dangerous situation to be in.<\/p>\n

Visit Iceland warns: \u201cSneaker waves make Reynisfjara Beach one of the most dangerous destinations in Iceland.\u201d<\/p>\n

It describes sneaker waves as \u201chuge coastal waves that can suddenly appear in a train of much smaller waves\u201d.<\/p>\n

The waves are much larger than those in between and can build up very quickly before hitting the shore.<\/p>\n

Due to the danger from sneaker waves, tourists are warned never to approach where the waves are landing.<\/p>\n
