Wondering if you should visit The Blue Lagoon? Are you asking yourself, Is The Blue Lagoon worth it? Iceland's Blue Lagoon is one of the most famous Iceland hot springs, and one of the best things to do in Reykjavik, but it is also one of the most expensive hot springs in the country.
In this video, we visit the Iceland Blue Lagoon and show you what it's like and if we feel that it's worth it or not.
Be sure to check out all of our other Iceland travel vlogs from the other parts of the country!

I love the way you picked that silica mask out of your nose! I should mention that there is another option now since May 31 for a lagoon experience. It is in Kopavogur, actually a suburb of Reykjavík and super close to the city. It is slightly more expensive but offers beautiful views of the ocean. It is brand new and just beautiful. The locals seem to like it very much. Just another option for us tourists. My family and I are taking a nine day trip to Iceland at the end of October and we might just encounter off-season prices! Here’s hoping. Thank you so much for your informative videos!

Back in the days, Icelanders used to bathe every Saturday in one of these geothermal natural hot pools, as well as wash their clothes in them. This is why we call Saturdays "Laugardagur" which literally translates to "Pool day" :) Swimming pools are a big thing in Icelandic culture, kids are taught how to swim in elementary school, we do "sjóböð" (swim in the sea), we chat with strangers about weather and politics in public hot tubs and we just overall love being in the water :) It has been speculated that Icelanders have benefitted from the clean air, the natural pools, and the healthy food combination, Icelanders today are the descendants of those who survived in the olden days :) Survival of the fittest. Very nice seeing your videos as always, got a subscriber out of me :)

Visited in 2019, the lagoon was a beautiful, unique spot and definitely worth the hype. It’s very touristy, and when you first step into the water near the building where you check in it does have some theme parkish vibes. But if you walk further out into the lagoon away from the entrance it’s awesome. Great views, a very authentic feeling, and it’s very peaceful. Interesting looking rocks all around.

Remember that you must book the Blue Lagoon online!! No transport except expensive taxis or hire car. The swimming pools in Iceland are very good with hot tubs etc €8. Hverrgerdi is a brilliant place to visit with a hot flowing river.. you got to hike there 4kms from the town.. free and unusual. Solo travellers will stick out at the Lagoon amongst all the honeymoon couples and ladies groups. Still, your choice.

Tough choice... When we were there, sky lagoon was just opening. We chose Blue Lagoon, because we had looked at pictures of it for years, so it was kind of a bucketlist spot for us. I think you would be happy with either one. I would also recommend checking out some of the lesser known hot springs too. Those are really cool. We visit a few in our Western Iceland Ring Road video

Ok, I know this is a difference between UK and Iceland, but in the UK we can shower with costumes on before we go into the pool (although many don’t bother showering at all). If you’re asked to shower without a costume, do they provide private cubicles, or at least some separation to allow some semblance of privacy for those of us with serious body anxieties? It’s a difficult enough mental exercise to be seen in public in a swimming costume.

I visited the Blue Lagoon five days ago and most people showered with their suits on before getting into the water. There doesn’t seem to be any enforcement of doing otherwise. The showers were individual stalls enclosed in opaque glass. If you are concerned about being naked in public there, there is little to be concerned about beyond getting changed in front of your locker.

It's good to try a deep in the hotspring water when in Iceland. Since you guys went to the north, why not try the Myvatn Nature bath? It's much cheaper and less crowded. For me, I found Blue Lagoon is too touristy and only if you did not travel to the northern side, you can opt for this lagoon. Also if you have much to spend too. Or else, Myvatn is a good choice instead of this. Just my opinion.

The place is garbage. I was there last week (Monday at noon) and 5 days later tested Positive for COVID. Lockers were unavailable, at one point even the hot water went out at the showers (causing serious traffic for about 20 minutes). There were a lot of rowdy young people and the place had a spring break feel. The only thing missing was the rap and techno music and a volleyball.

The Pools have Silica Mud on the bottom (the white) and the water if pumped up from Geothermal vents that are deep underground. I think that is what makes the water that color

Looks like an awful pool on a cruise ship.

Isn’t it kind of disgusting that everyone has to get rid of the mask in the lagoon?
