Far up the remote Strandir coast at Norðurfjörður, a warm pool sits on a wild black beach with the ocean breaking just beyond its wall. Reaching it is part of the reward, and few soaks anywhere feel as remote.
What to expect
A maintained pool and hot pot on the open beach, looking straight out to the Arctic sea. Simple changing facilities in a truly far flung setting.
Getting there
At the end of the road on the Strandir coast in the northern Westfjords, a long and beautiful drive from the ring road.
Best time to visit
Summer only, when the Strandir road is reliably open.
