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

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.

Perlan 1 km away (air distance)

Perlan sits on top of Öskjuhlíð hill, crowned with a shimmering glass dome built on six giant hot water tanks. Inside, the museum explores Iceland's natural wonders with interactive exhibits, a planetarium and a real indoor ice cave. A viewing deck wraps around the dome, giving wide views over Reykjavík, the sea and the mountains.

Sky Lagoon 1 km away (air distance)

It's best to book ahead, particularly for evening and summer slots, and you should plan on two to three hours. The lagoon is a short drive or bus ride from central Reykjavík, which makes it a convenient alternative to the Blue Lagoon, especially if you are not heading toward the airport. Sunset sessions are especially atmospheric.
