Iceland's World Famous Blue Lagoon











The Blue Lagoon geothermal spa is one of the most visited attractions in Iceland. The steamy waters are part of a lava formation. The spa is located in a lava field in Grindavik on the Reykjanes Peninsula, southwestern Iceland. 

The warm waters are rich in minerals like silica and sulphur and bathing in the Blue Lagoon is reputed to help some people suffering from skin diseases. The water temperature in the bathing and swimming area of the lagoon averages 37–39 °C (98–102 °F). The Blue Lagoon also operates a Research and Development facility to help find cures for other skin ailments using the mineral-rich water.

    Well before you can say it's not beautiful you must visit the place first. My partner (a filipina) and I were there few months ago for two weeks. I must say this place is awesome and Reykjavik itself is a wonderful place to visit. My partner loved it there.
