Nestled in an 800-year-old lava field in the heart of the Reykjanes Peninsula, just a 40-minute drive from Reykjavik, Blue Lagoon is not just Iceland’s top attraction, but also one of the most famous balneotherapeutic spas in the world.

Blue Lagoon, Iceland

Natural hot pool in the winter

The otherworldly facility is a mix of man-made and natural wonders, with mineral-rich pools, world-class wellness amenities, and unique accommodations built in harmony with the striking volcanic surroundings.

Sunset in Iceland

The outstanding properties of its milky blue waters and its eerie setting, surrounded by rugged lava fields and black volcanic rocks, make this huge hot pool one of the planet’s most spectacular places to have a soak. The water’s temperature hovers around 39°C (102°F) throughout the year, and the high levels of silica, algae, and minerals help the skin heal and regenerate, while also providing a relaxing and rejuvenating experience, head to toe.

Rejuvenating experience in Iceland

To make the most of your time at the Blue Lagoon, combine your soak with a reviving silica mud mask or a deeply relaxing in-water massage performed on a floating mat. Otherwise, you can always refresh with a healthy smoothie at the swim-up bar or pay a visit to the lava rock-carved sauna and steam baths on the premises.
