'I visited alternative to Iceland's Blue Lagoon - it's magical and less crowded'

Forget the Blue Lagoon: This Icelandic Spa Is a Must-Visit (Image: Portia Jones) If you want to escape the crowds of Blue Lagoon and experience something magical, I would choose Hvammsvík Hot Springs. Launched in 2022, this geothermal spring is perched on the beach within a beautiful 1,200-acre estate with hot pools up to around 40C. As a regular visitor to Iceland, I've visited many of the country's scenic geothermal spas, indulging in treatments, unwinding in warm pools and feasting in fancy on-site restaurants.

Out of them all, I personally love Hvammsvík Hot Springs the most for its natural, peaceful settings and relaxing vibes. Located in the picturesque Hvalfjörður fjord, just 45 minutes from Reykjavik, Hvammsvík offers an authentic Icelandic spa experience that rivals, if not surpasses, the Blue Lagoon. function loadOvpScript(){let el=document.
