Built in 1927, and is always open and free to enter.
It is with hot water of course, and in spectacular scenery.
It´s name is - Seljavallalaug ( map ) and is great to visit and enjoy .
On the video is first the black sand beach nearby, named - Reynisfjara and later in the video is the Swimming pool.
When wisiting the swimming pool , you have to walk for a few minutes to get to the pool , but it is worth it.
Reynisfjara ( map ) , the beach with black sand is a very beautiful landscape.
This location was used in the movie, Noah , with Russell Crowe .But you have to be careful there , and dont go close to the ocean.
Ocean waves can surprise you and can be big, and there have been accidents there ,so be careful.
