This pool is big; 50 x 12.5 meters and is located outdoors.

The pool is heated by self-running hot geothermal water so it stays hot all year around. There is a high fence surrounding most of the pool as well as parts of the old concrete walls.

There is a sun platform built above parts of the geothermal pool and the old green steam bath aside the pool. In the swimming pool, there are benches underneath the water. This has proven to very popular due to the fact that the swimming pool is so hot that it sometimes feels like sitting in a hot tub.

The dressing rooms are right next to the pool, they are large, clean and with good showers.

The swimming pool is always warm and because of that, many travelers that visit Reykjanes, say that it is one of the most effective resting places in the Westfjords, because the fatigue and stress will disappear in the hot water and clean.

There is a hotel and a restaurant in Reykjanes.
