Thermal Pools and Spas
One of the delights of a visit to Reykjavik is bathing in one of the many thermal pools, filled with geothermally heated water, which are found in every district of the city.
Abundant resources of geothermal springs mean that the pools are always pleasantly warm, whatever the weather. Most pools are open-air. All have outdoor whirlpools or 'hot-pots' to bask in before or after swimming, and most have waterslides for the young (and young at heart).
But the pools are only one of the options for basking in the abundant geothermal water. Reykjavík also boasts its own geothermal beach, several luxurious indoor city spas, and the world-famous Blue Lagoon is only a 40-minute drive from the city. Plenty of opportunities for some serious pool hopping!
