Bjórböðin Beer Spa

Fodor's choice

With unlimited ice-cold Kaldi beer on tap within arm's reach, you won't be tempted to slurp your beer bathwater. Not that you could, anyway, as the freshly run beer in these stylish kambala tubs is not for drinking. It's made with a blend of geothermal water and young unfermented beer with added brewer's yeast, rich in skin-conditioning B vitamins and minerals. They add some essential oils and beer soap, which creates a mildly fragrant foam on the top. After your 25-minute bath, plush carpets, warm blankets, and day beds await for post-bath relaxation. The spa is located in the town of Árskógssandi, just south of Dalvik.

Hauganes Sea Baths

Located 15 minutes from Dalvik, several marine containers are now employed as hot tubs installed on the black sand beach at Hauganes, providing a delightful beach spa experience and a great place to warm up after a cool sea swim. There are two traditional tubs and then one that's been remade into a ship's hull for the kids. Showers and changing facilities are next to the tubs.
