Iceland’s famous geothermal spa Blue Lagoon has fully reopened after months of on-off closures owing to a series of volcanic eruptions along the country’s Reykjanes peninsula.

The spa was forced to close again on Sunday (17 March)

The spa on Friday (16 February) confirmed all units were now open to customers, including the cafe, the Retreat and Silica hotels, and the Lava and Moss restaurants – as well as the main spa facilities.

It has temporarily adjusted its opening hours, and is now open from 8am to 9pm. Bookings will be taken up to 7pm. Access to the spa has changed too, owing to lava flows in the area.
