Clean room, warm and cosy. Not that big even if it was the biggest room, but okay for us. Central location but no parking. Also have to walk to the door from drop off point, take care if icy with suitcases as it’s about 200m away.

4.5/5(1,699 reviews)

Soak away your aches, get a massage treatment and swim in the milky blue waters of this mineral-rich geothermal pool sculpted by lava in Grindavik.

Blue Lagoon
'Completed: 2002 Trivia: Reykjanes peninsula lies on one of the world's major plate boundaries, the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. With the Eurasian and North American tectonic plates continuously drifting apart, linear fractures, known as fissures, form. The Bridge between the two continents is a small footbridge over such a major fissure. Consequently, you can have one foot on European soil and the other on North American soil at the same time.'

Like most people, we didn't do much exploring in the area around the International Airport in Iceland. We have regrets as this is a UNESCO geopark. Have a look - http://www.visitreykjanes.is/en We went to the Blue Lagoon of course! There are many places to have geothermal bathing experiences and the Blue Lagoon is the most famous
