The BlueLagoon in Iceland is an experience that cannot really be described without being there first hand, but I will try no less to tell you about this lovely place.
Location / Getting There
------------------------------
The Lagoon is based in the middle of nowhere in Iceland; it is about a 35-40 minute drive from Reykjavik via road, and is a short detour past Keflavik airport.
The only way to the Lagoon is via road as I stated, there are regular departures from Reykjavik Excursions BSI bus terminal daily or there are other excursions from different tour operators.
The actual Lagoon is literally in the middle of nowhere in the depths of the beautiful Icelandic landscape. The surrounding area is barren and reminded me of what I would expect the moon to look like. There are a few mountain ranges within view and besides ...
Advantages: very relaxing, could spend all day in it Disadvantages: in the middle of nowhere
I love Iceland and what better a way to start a trip the land of fire ice than a trip to the bluelagoon. Its beautiful warm blue waters in the open air of Iceland, theres nothing quite so refreshing.
Last September we arrived in Iceland in the snow and then got told that our first trip would be to an outside swimming pool, doesn't sound so great so far but believe me it is fantastic.

The blue colour is perfectly natural, i believe it is something to do with algae which changes the colour of the water but not entirely sure. seeing as the water has been deep down in the ground for thousands of years being heated by magma, as a result it is very warm ...
Advantages: Relaxing, Refreshing. A unique experience. Disadvantages: Incomplete information leaflets.
Swimming in the hot almost-fluorescent aquamarine waters of the BlueLagoon surrounded by black basalt lava rocks in icy temperatures of minus six degrees pelted with sporadic bursts of freezing rain is a unique experience and one I will remember for some time.
The BlueLagoon is a pool of geothermal sea water created by an unexpected consequence to the massive Svartsengi power plant. The power plant was built in the late 70s, and together with four other geothermal power plants in Iceland, produces around 26% of the country's electricity as well as around 87% of the country's hot water requirements. The power plant uses geothermally heated sea water from as deep as 2000 meters / 6000 feet below ground to transfer heat to fresh water for consumer use. The surplus brine waters are allowed to pour over onto the surrounding lava fields ...
