Iceland's Newest Lagoon Opening Next Month!

You haven't had a true Icelandic experience unless you've floated among one of the geothermal hot spots scattered around the island. Since the opening of the Blue Lagoon in 1992, tourists have flocked to Iceland to experience the healing phenomenon of volcanically heated baths. During the height of the pandemic, Iceland had announced a new lagoon experience near the nation's capital, Reykjavik. Now the country is making waves again with a new hot spring set to open not even a full year later. This time, it's attracting visitors to the North!

Now introducing, the Forest Lagoon Spa. Situated on Eyja Fjord and surrounded by the enchanting Vaglaskogur Forest. It is set to offer similar amenities as both the Blue and Sky Lagoon (a floating bar, steam rooms, etc) and is set to open in March, 2022.
