If there is one thing Icelanders can pride themselves in, it's their wide variety of geothermally heated swimming pools. Although there are many pools to choose from when you fancy a dip, Arbaejarlaug is definitely at the top of the list. Located in Reykjavik, modernly designed with excellent facilities for people of all ages, Arbaejarlaug is the perfect place to spend a morning, afternoon or an evening. It's comprised of an indoor children's pool, outdoor pool, outdoor paddling pool, water slide, fountains, waterfalls, massage jets, hot pots, steam baths and a sauna. Sounds good, doesn't it? There's something for everyone. Arbaejarlaug is where people come to play, swap stories, discuss politics, get healthy or have a nice day with the family. Showering without a bathing suit before going in the pool is mandatory at all swimming pools in Iceland. It may sound weird to you, but here everyone is used to it.

Arbaejarlaug is ideal for families, couples, and anyone who would like to combine a refreshing trip to the pool with a stimulating walk in a beautiful environment.
