Iceland is aptly named the land of fire and ice, where volcanic forces and glacial elements coexist. Hot springs are born from this geothermal activity, creating naturally heated pools.
Picture steam rising into crisp air as you soak in waters surrounded by moss-covered lava fields, with the occasional geyser bursting in the distance. Every hot spring visit is a front-row seat to Iceland's dramatic geology.
Hot spring ticket prices in Iceland start at and vary depending on the hot spring you choose and the amenities offered.
You can visit hot springs year-round! Winter offers a magical experience with snowy landscapes and a chance to see the Northern Lights. In summer, you can soak under the midnight sun. The experience changes with the season, but the warmth of the geothermal waters remains constant.
Booking a hot springs ticket in advance is highly recommended for popular hot springs like the Blue Lagoon, Vok Baths, and Sky Lagoon, as they tend to fill up quickly. Secret Lagoon and Krauma are less crowded, but securing your spot ahead of time—especially during peak travel months like June, July, and August—is still a wise choice.
The water temperature varies by location but typically ranges between 30°C and 40°C (97°F to 104°F). Some springs, like the Blue Lagoon and Krauma, are carefully maintained for comfort, while others, like the Secret Lagoon, retain their natural temperature fluctuations.
Yes, swimsuits are required at all public hot springs, including Blue Lagoon, Sky Lagoon, Secret Lagoon, and Krauma. So, don't forget to pack yours! Many facilities also have swimsuits available to rent if needed.
Yes, visiting multiple hot springs in a day is possible, especially if they are located near each other. For example, you can combine Sky Lagoon and Blue Lagoon if you're staying near Reykjavik. However, it's best to space them out to avoid overexposure to hot water. Drink plenty of water and take breaks between visits for a comfortable experience.
Yes. The water in hot springs is naturally self-cleaning due to its high mineral content and constant flow. Additionally, all the hot springs facilities filter and renew the water regularly to maintain hygiene.
Pack a change of clothes, swimsuit, towel, flip-flops, and a reusable water bottle. Don’t forget a waterproof phone case for photos!
Some hot springs, like the Blue Lagoon and Sky Lagoon, have lifeguards on duty for safety. However, natural and remote pools like Secret Lagoon may not, so always exercise caution and follow posted guidelines.
