ストーリー
On the shore of Ísafjarðardjúp, the great fjord that cuts into the heart of the Westfjords, Reykjanes is a small geothermal outpost built around its heat almost by necessity: warm ground near the water made it a natural place to settle, and in 1934 a district boarding school, Héraðsskólinn á Reykjanesi, was built here to serve children from the surrounding fjords, warmed by — and eventually built around — a large geothermal swimming pool. The school closed in 1991, but the pool it was built around outlived it. Today the pool, 50 by 12.5 metres and kept warm year-round by self-flowing geothermal water, is run alongside Hotel Reykjanes, which took over the old school buildings. It is an unusually large, quiet place to swim for such a remote stretch of coastline — ringed by fjord views rather than crowds, with an old green sauna and a sun deck as the only other amenities.

At 50 x 12.5 metres, the pool at Reykjanes is informally described as the longest swimming pool in Iceland — reportedly a little longer than its intended 50-metre design.
