What Makes the Blue Lagoon Special?

The Blue Lagoon in Iceland is a renowned geothermal spa known for its milky-blue waters enriched with silica, algae, and minerals. With temperatures ranging from 37–40°C (98–104°F), the lagoon creates a naturally soothing environment, perfect for relaxation. Whether easing post-flight fatigue or unwinding after a tour, it’s a favorite for both visitors and locals.

Set within an 800-year-old lava field, the lagoon’s otherworldly surroundings enhance its appeal. Steam rises from the warm water, contrasting against the rugged volcanic rock, creating a scene that feels almost surreal. The vast, open landscape adds to the sense of escape, making it an ideal place to disconnect from daily life.

Beyond relaxation, the water is recognized for its skin-nourishing properties, particularly for those with psoriasis and other conditions. The silica strengthens the skin’s barrier, while algae promote hydration and collagen production, offering natural skincare benefits.

For an elevated experience, guests can enjoy in-water massages, silica and algae mud treatments, or floating therapies. With steam baths, saunas, and specialized spa treatments, the Blue Lagoon blends natural wonder with luxury, providing a deeply restorative experience.

When to Visit the Blue Lagoon

If you’re planning a Blue Lagoon Iceland vacation, this buzzing hotspot has year-round appeal, illuminated by milky turquoise waters and warmth—no matter the season. In wintertime, you’ll experience the contrast between snowy landscapes and steamy, mineral-rich waters. Then, imagine lounging on a sunny summer day, bringing a whole new meaning to revitalization. 

Early morning and late evening visits will create a quieter, more Zen-like ambiance. (You’re welcome!) As a winter visitor, you’ll have the added benefit of potentially witnessing another bucket list item mid-soak: the luminous Northern Lights. Dancing ethereal greens and purples making an appearance while in soul-warming waters? Sign us up!

So, you’re ready to take the dip, but where are you coming from? Iceland’s Blue Lagoon is a relatively short 47 km (29 mi) drive from Reykjavik, with convenient and frequent tour buses and private transfer options. With only a 20-minute drive of 23 km (14 mi) between baggage claim and your bucket list, transfers from Keflavik Airport are also ideal for layovers. Soaking before or after a long day of travel—now that’s indulgence.

If you’re more of a self-starter, why not look into a self-drive option? The Blue Lagoon has ample parking for rental cars, so consider adding it to your 5-day excursion or 7-day adventure, including the Golden Circle, voracious waterfalls, or unique black sand beaches. That’s a detour worth taking!

What to Expect at the Blue Lagoon

Upon arrival, you can expect a smooth and hassle-free check-in process with friendly staff to guide you. Depending on your chosen package—Comfort, Premium, or Retreat Spa—you’ll receive access to different amenities. After securing your wristband, which grants access to amenities, you’ll make your way to the famous milky blue waters. As you soak your cares away, you’ll have the opportunity to apply a complimentary silica mud mask or sip on a refreshing drink from the in-water bar. Why not both?

For an even more relaxing cure for jet lag, indulge in optional spa enhancements and wellness treatments, including a nourishing couple’s float session or a relaxing in-water massage. Premium and Retreat guests can enjoy extra perks like plush bathrobes, slippers, and exclusive masks. When you’re ready to take a break from your repose, we recommend getting a taste of local Icelandic cuisine at the on-site Lava Restaurant. Alternatively, the Blue Café offers lighter snacks and beverages to keep you satiated before sinking back into the water.
