Notable places within about 40 km — shown as straight-line (air) distance, not travel distance

Perlan 0.7 km away (air distance)

Plan two to three hours if you want to see the exhibits as well as the observation deck. Booking tickets in advance is wise in summer. Afterwards, the woodland trails on Öskjuhlíð hill are great for a short walk, and Nauthólsvík geothermal beach is just a few minutes away. In winter, wear warm layers for the ice cave.

Nauthólsvík Geothermal Beach 0.9 km away (air distance)

Nauthólsvík is a small sheltered bay in Reykjavík where warm water makes sea swimming surprisingly comfortable. A sandy beach, a lagoon enclosed by a sea wall and several hot tubs make it a lively spot on sunny days. The setting, with Reykjavík University and Öskjuhlíð hill behind, is green and peaceful.

Sky Lagoon 2 km away (air distance)

Opened in 2021, the spa takes inspiration from Icelandic bathing traditions and turf-house architecture. Guests follow a multi-step ritual that alternates warm water, cold plunge, sauna, steam and a skin scrub. The geothermal water is drawn from nearby sources and mixed to keep the lagoon at a comfortable temperature.
