On the Reykjanes Peninsula this area became famous for accessible fissure eruptions and vast new lava fields. Even when quiet the fresh black rock shows raw geology at work. 🌋

Iceland’s most famous geothermal spa set in a stark lava field on the Reykjanes Peninsula. Milky blue water rich in silica and algae. A calm, steamy scene with modern facilities.

Beautiful hike over a recently erupted active volcano, raw and incredible. Black lava fields with steam vents, ground warm in places, landscape from another planet. So interesting to see, unforgettable. Hiking boots recommended, worthy every step. 🌋

The Blue Lagoon is one of Iceland’s most famous spots. With warm milky-blue water at around 37–39°C and dark rocks, this spot is perfect for relaxing. It’s more of a luxury spa than a wild hot spring, so expect crowds during high season and higher prices. Still it’s worth visiting at least once, especially if you go early in the day. They also give you a face mask (the silica mud mask leaves your skin feeling incredible).

This hot spring is a must visit, with steamy milky-blue water and amazing views of the mountains.
