Secret Lagoon


The Secret Lagoon is actually not so secret. You book in advance and they cap the number of people that are allowed in. Compared to the notoriety of some other geothermal spas in Iceland, this one is certainly a hidden gem. It is considered to be the oldest geothermal pool in Iceland.

What makes this spot awesome is that these are natural hot springs. Water and steam  bubbles up from fissures beside the lagoon and flows into the pool area.  There is no concrete - just earthen banks and a gravel bottom.

The warm water holds 38-40 Celsius all year. Best of all was that it took all of 7 minutes to drive there from the house.
