Escape into nature with a Hvammsvík Hot Springs admission ticket and experience eight geothermal hot springs beside the Atlantic Ocean. Located in the spectacular Hvalfjörður region, around 45 minutes from Reykjavík, Hvammsvík combines geothermal bathing with mountains, ocean views and Icelandic nature.
The eight natural hot springs vary in size and temperature, allowing you to move between different pools while taking in the surrounding landscape. The springs sit right beside the ocean, creating a bathing experience where geothermal warmth meets the cold North Atlantic.
Your admission gives you access to the hot springs, steam room, private showers and changing facilities. There is also a swim-up bar where you can purchase refreshments while enjoying the surroundings.
For an extra contrast, you can experience the ocean itself between visits to the warm pools. Depending on conditions and availability, other activities may also be offered.
During summer, SUP paddle boards are included when weather conditions allow, adding another way to experience the beautiful coastal setting.
Hvammsvík offers a very different atmosphere from a traditional indoor spa. The pools sit within the natural coastal landscape, surrounded by mountains and wildlife.
Because the hot springs are only around 45 minutes from Reykjavík, Hvammsvík is also an appealing option for travellers looking for a geothermal bathing experience within easy reach of the capital.
Guests must be 10 years or older. Bring your swimsuit and towel if possible, although these and other useful bathing items are available to rent on site.
Whether you want to relax in geothermal water, experience the contrast of hot springs and cold ocean water, or simply enjoy the scenery of Hvalfjörður, Hvammsvík Hot Springs offers a memorable way to experience Iceland’s geothermal nature.
