One of the top tourist attractions of Iceland, the Blue Lagoon does not only provide for a relaxing dip into its healthy waters with silica and sulphur, but is also an amazing sight in itself as the water is, well, very blue indeed.
Together with most of the few other visitors, I paid a regular visit to the sauna and steam bath to get really warm. After that, it was a pleasure to step outside and feel your warm skin get battered by the outside weather. Time to apply some of the silica mud that can be found in many places around the Blue Lagoon, or Bláa lónið in Icelandic. The water is heated by geothermal power coming from a lava flow nearby, while the water is seawater. Its blue appearance comes from the blue green algae, the silica and minerals in the water. Unfortunately, the economic crisis has hit the Icelandic people hard and I only met foreigners enjoying the medicinal powers of the Blue Lagoon. Some of them were on their way to the airport, which in fact is pretty close from here.
