Blue Lagoon

Set amongst the beauty of Iceland’s black lava rock formations, the Blue Lagoon is a unique and magical experience. This 40_C lake is not actually a natural mineral hot spring but an artificial lake perpetually filled by the outflow from the nearby geothermal (clean) power station that creates power from the natural hot springs. Whatever the weather (cold is probable), this silica rich lake is known as a fantastic therapeutic bath. It is traditional to use the silica and other minerals found at the bottom as a mudpack. Blue due to the algae within, it is ten minutes from the airport, with its own warm waterfall. A psoriasis treatment centre is nearby, also with hydrotherapy and massage spa.
