Blue Lagoon

#TravelGuide Mystical Hot Spring Experience: Iceland's Healing Spots (Experiences & Benefits) The Blue Lagoon is one of the most iconic spots on Iceland's #OverseasTravel. It's a geothermal spa nestled within the lava fields of the Reykjanes Peninsula. Its most distinctive feature is its milky blue waters. This unique color comes from the water's abundance of silica and algae, which are known for their skin-beautifying and soothing properties. The lagoon's water temperature remains constant at 37°C to 40°C year-round, ensuring a warm bath even in the cold Icelandic weather. Visitors can enjoy a drink at the in-water bar while soaking in the hot springs or apply the silica mud found around the pool to their face as a natural mud mask. Beyond just a hot spring, the Blue Lagoon is surrounded by rugged lava formations, creating a surreal, otherworldly healing experience. Reservations are required and admission times are limited, so plan your visit with plenty of time to spare.
