GeoSea Húsavík Admission

People of North Iceland have been using geothermal heat for bathing for centuries. During the mid-20th century, drilling at Húsavíkurhöfði revealed that this hot water is actually mineral-rich seawater, not suitable for heating houses. This water has been made to use by installing an old cheese barrel at Húsavíkurhöfði. 

Residents of Húsavík could come here and enjoy the many benefits of mineral-rich seawater, naturally heated through geothermal energy. This water is believed to have many health benefits and even remedy such skin conditions as psoriasis.

Water comes to the sea baths through two drill holes. One is located by the cheese barrel, and the other by the harbor. There's no need for chemicals to keep the water clean – a steady flow of water circulates between the pools preventing the water from becoming stale.

GeoSea is a mecca for world-class geothermal bathing, popular among tourists and locals. Bathing is an important part of the Icelandic tradition – people come here to rewind after a day of hard work and socialize. This tradition has been around for so long that it’s become part of the Icelandic culture. 

Visiting GeoSea is a healing experience. Soaking in mineral-rich water can help to revitalize your skin. Warm water temperature (around 38-39°C) stimulates blood circulation, relaxes tense muscles, and leaves you feeling refreshed. You’ll also be able to visit a steam room where you can leave your stress behind. In the showers, you’ll find free Icelandic natural cosmetics. 

And, of course, the astounding location adds up to the experience. Travel up North to reach the town of Húsavík. Here you will be surrounded by beautiful scenery and incomparable landscape.
