Explore Sky Lagoon — Iceland’s oceanfront geothermal spa
Set on the Kársnes peninsula in Kópavogur, Sky Lagoon blends modern Icelandic design with centuries‑old bathing tradition.
Slip into warm, mineral‑rich waters, lean over the infinity edge where sea and sky meet, and slow down with the signature seven‑step ritual — sauna, cold plunge, fog‑mist, body scrub, steam, shower, and a final soak.
It’s a peaceful, restorative escape just minutes from Reykjavík..

Strætó bus services connect Reykjavík and Kópavogur; check the Strætó app or website for current routes and timetables to Kársnes.
On Foot
A scenic coastal walk circles Kársnes with views toward the Reykjanes peninsula. From central Reykjavík it’s a long walk; from nearby neighborhoods it’s pleasant in good weather.
Why visit Sky Lagoon
An infinity‑edge lagoon meeting the Atlantic, a panoramic sauna with one sweeping window, and the calming seven‑step ritual — all moments designed to bring you closer to Iceland’s elements.
