Álftaneslaug is a quiet geothermal swimming pool located on the Álftanes peninsula in the Capital Region, just a short drive from central Reykjavík. The facility includes outdoor swimming pools, hot tubs with different temperatures, and comfortable family-friendly amenities. Known for its calm local atmosphere and coastal surroundings, the pool offers a relaxing alternative to the busier swimming pools in Reykjavík. Heated with geothermal water and open year-round, it is a great stop when exploring Álftanes and nearby Bessastaðir, the official residence of the President of Iceland.
Guests must shower without swimwear before entering the pool, following Icelandic swimming pool hygiene rules.
