WHAT YOU VISIT
Hvammsvik Hot Springs
Prepare to unwind as you disembark and soak in the tranquility of this remote 480-hectare (1,200-acre) resort. A historical landmark, first discovered by the Vikings 1,000 years ago, offers the ideal destination to relax while experiencing the Icelandic nature. With unlimited access to eight geothermal pools, you can sit in water ranging from 35°C (95°F) to 40°C (104°F) and rejuvenate under the open Icelandic sky. Watch the waves, look for seals, and when you're ready, take the plunge into the cooling waters of the Atlantic Ocean.
