About this experience

Our baths sit on the eastern shore of Lake Mývatn, in a lava field that still breathes steam. The twilight session is the one we are proudest of: the day visitors are gone, the light turns blue, and the only sounds are water and birds. Entry includes towels, a guided introduction to the water (it is unusually rich in silica and sulphur — your skin will notice), and warm drinks on the deck. In winter this is one of the most reliable northern-lights bathing spots in the country.

The twilight hour at Mývatn is magic — steam, blue light, total quiet. The water feels different from anywhere else in Iceland.

Skip the famous crowded lagoons and come here instead. Family-run, calm, and the deck drinks under the crater row were perfect.

We had the baths nearly to ourselves. My skin felt new for a week. The hosts treat you like guests, not throughput.

Gorgeous and quiet. The changing rooms are basic — bring your own conditioner — but the water and the view are world class.
