Blue Lagoon (Bláa Lónið)

While it’s one of Iceland’s iconic tourist attractions, it’s probably not a must-see, especially on a repeat trip to Iceland. However, it’s one of those once-in-a-lifetime price tag experiences that, as the most well known activity in the country, gives you a shared experience with every other tourist that visits the country and does offer iconic blue photos. Entirely man-made you can explore the pool with a drink in your hand (part of the admission price). While it will be enjoyable if you go, we’re not convinced it’s worth price of entry. There are other hot springs throughout the country that ask much more reasonable prices. There are a few options for food if you want to spend the day there, and you are provided with a locker for your things. Get reservations ahead of time-prebooking is required.

Hours: daily, 08:00-22:00
