Best Iceland Hot Springs

  1. Sky Lagoon: My personal favorite! Plus you can purchase beer, juices, wine, and decent champagne to enjoy too! Worth every penny of the admission fee, I promise!
  2. Hvammsvik: This place is magical!
  3. Vök Baths: Floating Pools!
  4. Kerlingarfjöll Hot Spring
  5. Grettislaug Hot Spring
  6. Forest Lagoon
  7. The Secret Lagoon in Fludir
  8. Reykjadalur River (45-90 minute hike depending on weather/snow level. It’s super close to the quaint of town Hveragerdi).
  9. Landmannalaugar (within the Icelandic Highlands)
  10. Geosea Geothermal Sea Baths
  11. Fontana
  12. Fosslaug Hot Springs
  13. Hveravellir Highland Hot Spring
  14. Grjótagjá (Northern Iceland – Be careful the rocks have been shifting and the water is hotter than a typical hot tub)
  15. Landbrotalaug (Snaefellsness Peninsula)
  16. Seljavallalaug (Southern Iceland -Man made but a super cool mountain pool 20 minute hike and the water is from a natural mountain source).
  17. Want something now and near the area to you? Iceland has over 100+ country-wide public Swimming Pools (Note: They have seriously strict rules like showering naked before and after your swim, so don’t be modest and follow/respect the rules)!
  18. …there are many other super secret ones too, we’d love to share but those are reserved for our hardcore super cool clients <3

Note: The Blue Lagoon and the Myvatn Nature Baths did not make our list for 3 Reasons: A.) It’s man made.  B.) The water that fills it is runoff from the nearby power treatment plant.  C.) It can be very touristy.  But it can be a must see for many so please don’t let us deter you as this is just our offbeat opinion.

Anyhow, we’d love to put together an unforgettable Iceland honeymoon or self-drive adventure for you, so please contact us for more information!  Also if you seek other super cool adventures, checkout our hand picked Iceland experiences page.
