Another perfect pool for kids and grown ups. With a 25 meter long swimming pool, two hot tubs, a shallow children's pool, ice bath and a steam bath, everyone should find a way to relax and re-energize

Swimming pools are an integral part of Icelandic culture and has been ever since people started gathering in natural hot springs in the past. It's where people meet an talk about everything from the weather to politics. Entering one of those pools is really the easiest way to immerse yourself in the local culture.

PS. They're almost all geothermally heated!

QUICK NOTES:
