🏔️ Nearby Sights

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

Sky Lagoon 1 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.

Nauthólsvík Geothermal Beach 2 km away (air distance)

The beach is busiest in summer, but the hot tubs are also used by hardy locals in cooler months, and there is a café on site. Bring a towel and swimsuit, and use the changing rooms. It is easily combined with a walk or cycle along the coastal path or a visit to Perlan, a short distance away.

Perlan 2 km away (air distance)

Perlan was completed in 1991 on top of tanks that store geothermal hot water for the city's heating system. The site is a nice reminder of how deeply geothermal energy shapes daily life in Iceland, and the museum's exhibits on glaciers, volcanoes and the northern lights explore that story further.
