The Blue Lagoon is a geothermal spa in a lava field on the Reykjanes peninsula, about 5 km north of Grindavík, below Mount Þorbjörn. Its milky-blue water is geothermal seawater from the neighbouring Svartsengi power station; silica gives the colour and settles as white mud on the bottom, and the bathing area averages 37–39 °C.
Gunnuhver is a geothermal area of steam vents and boiling mud pools on the southwestern tip of the Reykjanes peninsula, near the Reykjanesviti lighthouse. Its largest mud pool is about 20 m across and is fed by geothermal seawater rather than fresh water; two viewing platforms look over it. Local folklore names it after the ghost of a woman called Gunna.
