City Life - swimming pools
Swimming pool hours and fee schedule
Reykjavík's swimming pools are located at eight sites across the city, offering year-round opportunities to stay active, unwind, and enjoy time with others. The pools offer a wide range of amenities for all ages — whether you want to swim laps, soak in a hot tub, relax in the steam room, or spend a fun day out with the family. The pools are part of Icelandic swimming pool culture, which has been inscribed on UNESCO's Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.
