Best Iceland Hot Springs

Everyone has a different definition of what the “best” means.  After all, it can vary depending on your situation and location.  Therefore, we will share with you the best Iceland hot springs by each region of Iceland for better planning as you embark on your Iceland self-drive honeymoon itinerary…

Near to Reykjavik:

• 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!
• Hvammsvik: This place is magical!

Reykjanes Peninsula:

• Skatalaug

South Iceland:

• 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)!
• The Secret Lagoon in Fludir
• Reykjadalur River (45-90 minute hike depending on weather/snow level. It’s super close to the quaint of town Hveragerdi).
• Fontana
• Seljavallalaug (Southern Iceland -Man made but a super cool mountain pool 20 minute hike and the water is from a natural mountain source).

Iceland Highland Hot Springs:

• Kerlingarfjöll Hot Spring
• Landmannalaugar (within the Icelandic Highlands)
• Hveravellir Highland Hot Spring

East Iceland:

• Vök Baths: Floating Pools!

North Iceland:

• Grettislaug Hot Spring
• Forest Lagoon
• Geosea Geothermal Sea Baths
• Fosslaug Hot Springs
• Grjótagjá (Northern Iceland – Be careful the rocks have been shifting and the water is hotter than a typical hot tub)

West Iceland:

• Landbrotalaug (Snaefellsness Peninsula)

Meanwhile, 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.
