Sky Lagoon

Sky Lagoon

Sky Lagoon has quickly made a name for itself as a place where the Icelandic idea of well-being is fully embraced — combining modern design, panoramic views of the sea and Bessastaðir, and a deep sense of calm.

A warm welcome - literally

As you step through the wooden gates, you’re immediately met with a warm welcome and a soothing, natural atmosphere. The lagoon itself stretches out like a mirror beside the surf, where hot water blends seamlessly with the ocean view — and on clear days, Snæfellsjökull glacier shimmers on the horizon.

The experience centers around tranquility, comfort, and a close connection to nature.

Skjól Ritual

One of Sky Lagoon’s signature features is the Skjól Ritual — a Seven-Step Ritual inspired by Nordic wellness traditions. It’s a journey through heat, cold, sauna, body scrub, and stillness, designed to awaken the senses and restore balance. The contrast of slipping from a cold dip straight into the hot steam, all while gazing out over the sea, is both invigorating and deeply relaxing.

Designed for authentic feel

Design is a key part of the experience. Turf-roofed buildings, basalt stone, and elements drawn from traditional Icelandic architecture give the lagoon an authentic, grounded feeling — making Sky Lagoon a thoughtful and welcome addition to Iceland’s rich bathing culture.
