Latest Grindavík hotel reviews
sigthor_egle Says: Iceland is known for all kinds of geothermal water appearing in the country. The Blue Lagoon is a place where salty water is used to cure minds and skin :) This rather big and popular pool could be a nice place for anyone: people stopping by in Iceland for a day or two,...
Regina1965 Says: By the road leading to the Blue lagoon and Grindavík there is a parking lot with information signs and a lava cave with a ladder so you can walk down into it.This whole area is a lava area and there is a volcano right next to the town of Grindavík. There is a small path for...
gordonilla Says: This was the only place that I visited in Grindavik. It was a fairly easy journey from Reykjavik by bus and I have to say that when we set off there was not one flake of snow to be seen. En route it started to fall and by the team we arrived it was fairly heavy and the clear...

a5floor Says: The Blue Lagoon is a big 'pool'. The water is between +37C and +39C all year long. There are several pots that have mask stuff in it. You can put something out and put it on your face.This Blue Lagoon is really great. When I was there, the outside temperature was +2C. So, it...
The famous Blue Lagoon - well worth its reputation
WanderingFinn Says: This IS a must, I don't care if some people would call it a tourist trap (never heard so far though). After a whole day driving, it was like heaven to go to the warm water and just to be there, doing nothing.There where a couple of wooden pots from which you could take the...
The Blue Lagoon (Icelandic: "Bláa Lónið")
NYC2TLV Says: The Blue Lagoon (Icelandic: "Bláa Lónið") is one of Iceland's most popular attractions and definently one of the best places to go if you are going during the winter months. Fed by a nearby power plant (that you can barely see in the winter), the water in this lava formation...
melanief Says: Some friends and I came across a cave that leads deep into the earth. We took our flashlights and explored for a bit. We walked / crawled / scooted back for about a half an hour, then decided we should head back out. I don't know how far back the cave leads. There were areas...
ClareyD Says: The blue lagoon is a natural geothermal spa which was created by the run-off from the Svartsengi power plant, which pumps up the geothermally heated water from a full mile below the surface. After being used to generate heat, the excess is ejected into the lagoon. It's an...

melanief Says: I enjoyed dining at Sjavarperlan. When my friends and I first entered, we were seated on plump leather couches and our drinks were brought over. Then we ordered our meals. We sat on the comfy couches and chatted until we were beckoned upstairs. We were then seated in the...
Blue Lagoon: Blue Lagoon skin products
MFAMILY Says: As you leave from a time well spent in the lagoon, you have to go out through the shop... Yes, you'll definetelly leave a thousand more Kronur there. There's a lot of skin treatments to choose from as well as some clothing (including Blue Lagoon T-shirts) and other...
PotatoChips Says: Open public showers can be a shocker for many. It's a good thing that at the Blue Lagoon there are stalls with doors where you do have some privacy when showering and changing. Having said that be prepared for a lot of naked bodies all over the place although most people try...
NYC2TLV Says: Knattspyrnudeild UMFG, commonly known as Grindvíkingar, is the local football side in Grindavík. They have a very nice stadium and matches are played during the summer when the weather is pleasant. There is only one main stand with good sightlines, so you will not need...

Grindavik is the capital of Salt Fish (also called Bacalao). It's the closest town to the famous Blue Lagoon. There's a petrol station and that's about it. What you really want is to soak in the blue...

No trip to Iceland would be complete without atrip to Blue Lagoon. I went a few times while I was in Iceland. The first time I went, rain, snow, hail, and sleet all took turns pelting my head, but I...

Well, with many people, I probably did not realise that there was a place name for the place I visited one Saturday on an excursion out of Reykjavik. As with so many tourists and travellers I visited...
