So quiet and peaceful, I'd revisit Secret Lagoon any time. Staff persons were welcoming, and everything super clean. The lagoon was picturesque. The bottom of the largest pool was smooth pebble and felt good on tired feet.

Relax in the Secret Lagoon, Iceland’s oldest natural hot spring, with consistently warm geothermal waters year-round.

Witness erupting geysers such as Vaðmálahver, Básahver, and Litli Geysir, which put on a natural show every few minutes.

Enjoy the soothing benefits of mineral-rich geothermal waters sourced directly from nearby hot springs.

Stroll along the wooden pathway of Hveraholmi, where steam rises from active hot springs nestled among lush green pastures.

Pro tip: Visit in winter for a chance to see the magical Northern Lights dancing across the Icelandic sky.

The pool itself was nice but the surroundings were not as beautiful as others we saw. The check in area and locker rooms were very chaotic and took away from the peaceful spa like part of the pools. Charging nearly $10 USD for towel rental felt really u fair

I wonder if the safety of tourists and employees is really the top priority. I saw the earthquake-damaged roads on the approach, and the new temporary road right next to the new one, which still looked warm and was smoking. The volcano nearby still active. I assume it's an important source of income for the state to repair other infrastructure damage and thats why the lagoon is now open. If not, I find it criminal, and I'm just waiting for another disaster to occur in this now-active area.

Unique. Like the name says, a Secret paradise, a perfect stop before completing the Golden Circle. Hope to come back...
