About the Blue Lagoon from Reykjavík

The Blue Lagoon sits in a black lava field on the Reykjanes Peninsula, about 45 minutes' drive from Reykjavík. The milky-blue water is geothermal seawater from the nearby Svartsengi power plant, rich in silica and minerals, and stays at around 37–40°C all year.

This package takes care of the logistics. The bus leaves from BSÍ bus terminal in Reykjavík, and the whole trip takes about four hours, including the drive both ways. At the lagoon you get the Comfort admission, which includes a towel, a silica mud mask and one drink at the swim-up bar.

The silica is good for your skin but hard on your hair. Use the conditioner in the changing rooms before you go in and keep long hair tied up. Take off silver jewellery too, as the minerals can tarnish it.

The lagoon is popular and entry works on booked time slots, so book ahead, especially in summer. The Reykjanes Peninsula has had several eruptions near Grindavík since 2023, and the lagoon has closed for short periods because of them, so check for updates before you go.
