Forest Lagoon

It is a well-organized, clean, and cozy place. We enjoyed the Great experience and the cold 12-degree pond, where you could cool off after the sauna or the hot part. Just bring your swimming suit and credit card; nothing else is needed.

Loved this thermal lagoon. Everything looked very new and was very stylish. They use the latest technology to track your entrance, access to lockers and swim up bar. The place is beautiful and they provide a wonderful experience.

Amazing lagoon! Had a great experience. Go early and take the free shuttle! Easy to walk to the pick up stop. Less than 10 minute walk from cruise port. When done, just take the shuttle back!

Awesome thermal pool experience here! The staff were friendly, the thermal pool was a good temperature, as well as their hot tub. They also had a very cold pool available and a sauna to sit in to get some heat in your body. Their signature drink was delicious and so was the other drink options they had. Great showers, changing rooms, and secure lockers they had as well. There is still a lot of development going on here since they are trying to make the place 2x as big as it is now, but didn’t effect the overall experience, but exciting to hear about and to see the final result. Overall, great experience here and highly recommend it!

Such an awesome spot between Akureyri sea bay and forest trees. Everything was super well set up, and the water was warm and relaxing. The sauna and the mix of hot and cold pools were a great touch. Totally worth it!

Forest Lagoon was a unique experience. The interior is designed with paying attention to every single detail. The entrance fee is significantly lower than for Sky Lagoon and Blue Lagoon, but still you get a similar experience. The bar is fairly priced. Also a special shout out to their shampoo and conditioner, you can really feel the difference after you use them at the end of your stay. Another shout out for the drying machine for the swimsuits.

Booking was easy, the free shuttle comes every 30-ish minutes, and the check-in process is quick and easy. The lagoon itself is gorgeous. There is a large hot spring area attached to a waterside bar, and a smaller hotter area to the side of that. The cold plunge is smaller and separated, but people don't stay there for too long. Cold and refreshing after using the sauna, which is large and rarely crowded. You need to shower naked before putting on your swimsuit and entering the water, but the towel service, changing rooms, and lockers make that easy. There is a swimsuit dryer that makes packing back up very easy. The shampoo, conditioner, and soap is all provided and high quality. We didn't try the restaurant or the separate bar, but the waterside bar drinks were great and the views were lovely. Even when it was crowded it was a great experience.

Went in June 2025 with my husband and three year old. We would prefer this every day over the blue lagoon. Easy 7 min taxi away from the cruise port. No issue getting a taxi at the port or to return to the port. Prices are very reasonable for the experience. We paid $143 for two adults and three towels. The staff was amazing. The locker rooms were super clean and orderly. The soap, shampoo, and conditioner provided for the showers was awesome. The drinks at the swim up bar weren’t even priced too high (for Iceland). I’m so glad we decided to spend a few hours here unwinding.
