About
Krauma is a geothermal lagoon in West Iceland.
The bathing pools are held at 37–41°C, with a cold tub alongside; the spring water itself leaves the ground far hotter and is tempered before it reaches the baths. (Operator figures, August 2026.)
Steam rises around you as you sink into naturally heated water. The contrast of warm water and cold air is pure Iceland.
Natural hot springs vary in temperature - some spots are scalding, others barely warm. Test with your hand first, always.
