About Blue Lagoon

The Blue Lagoon's silica-rich, 38°C waters sit in a dramatic moss-and-lava landscape. Float with a silica mud mask, sip a drink from the in-water bar, and unwind in the saunas. Its proximity to the airport makes it a perfect first or last stop on any trip.

When to visit

Magical year-round — steamy and surreal in winter snow, balmy under the summer midnight sun. Book ahead.
