Savoring the Relaxation of a Spa Treatment
Chilling Out at Sky Lagoon: A Relaxing Icelandic Adventure
Traveling can be a two-edged sword. It's exhilarating, sure, but it can also leave you drained. If you're looking for a half-day break in Iceland, Sky Lagoon's got your back. This modern, cozy, and mystical geothermal pool offers an immersive, holistic wellness experience. Be prepared to slow down, embrace theelements, and reconnect with your mind, body, and spirit.
The Sky Lagoon, nestled on Kársnes point in Kópavogur, just ten minutes from Reykjavik city center, presents a structured relaxation process. The Ritual at Sky Lagoon is designed to provide guests with a transformative and revitalizing experience.
So, let's dive right in!
Step 1: Take it easy in the Lagoon
Start your journey in the heart of the facility, where a 70-meter-long, heated infinity pool awaits. Looking out onto the Atlantic, this is where you can unwind, chat under a cascade ofwater, or sip a refreshing welcome beverage. Even if you're sharing the pool with others, finding a comfortable rock-sofa or an open spot for a float won't be hard.
Step 2: Brace yourself for the chill
Taking the plunge is one part exciting, one part daunting. Preparing yourself for impending heat, you'll find an ice bath right before the spa entrance. Although a quick dip, it's surely invigorating!
Step 3: Heat things up in the Sauna
Warmth awaits in this generous sauna, where panoramic windows offer views of the ocean. With plenty of space for everyone, you'll quickly find your spot to relax and soak in the view.
Step 4: Cleanse your senses with Rainfall
Next up, a cooling shower to invigorate your senses. A refreshing mist, reminiscent of a tropical downpour (with a Nordic twist), will leave you invigorated and wide-awake!
Step 5: Revive yourself with a Body Scrub
With sea salt, almond oil, grapeseed oil, and sesame oil, a full-body scrub awaits you. The exfoliating mixture not only smells amazing but leaves your skin feeling soft and rejuvenated. You'll be whipping up this recipe at home!
Step 6: Detoxify in the Steam Room
In the steam room, warm mist opens pores and helps you relax and detoxify. The room’s marine-like fog gently works its magic without offering much to see.
Step 7: Relax and Reconnect in the Lagoon
Fresh and rejuvenated, rinse off the scrub, wash away stress, and return to the lagoon. Settle back for one more round of blissful relaxation.
After your blissful experience, feel free to unwind a little longer at Smakk Bar with some tasty pickled herring or a sampling of Icelandic cheeses.
