GeoSea Thermal Baths Admission in Husavik

What to expect
For centuries, Husavik residents have embraced the region’s geothermal waters for bathing and daily life. In the mid-20th century, drilling for household heating unexpectedly uncovered mineral-rich hot seawater instead of freshwater. Though unsuitable for heating homes, locals found an innovative use for this natural resource. An old cheese barrel at Husavikurhofoi was transformed into a bathing spot where residents could enjoy the therapeutic seawater. Kept at a soothing temperature of 38°–39°C, the baths became known for their healing properties, especially for people with skin conditions such as psoriasis. This creative use of geothermal energy highlights Husavik’s deep connection with nature and its longstanding tradition of wellness and community care.
Reviews
Amazing Alps view across the sea. Free ice water provided from the bar. Area for soaking relatively small compared to the other places but also less people.
three different pools all warm and a warm steam mist sauna. friendly staff and modern facilities, very nice.
A great and comfortable experience. You'll feel sleepy after soaking. The environment is wonderful. Listening to the seagulls and enjoying the sea view while soaking in the hot spring is very relaxing and therapeutic! 😆
A bathhouse with good facilities and beautiful scenery, the water temperature is just right, and there is shelter from wind and rain. The overall feeling is good, but it is a pity that it is not a hot spring.
A very disappointing visit. The small pool with a sea view wasn't heated, towel rentals were over ₩15,000 per person, and the drinks were very expensive. I regret visiting.
