Drangsnes Hot Pots

The Drangsnes hot pots sit right along the shoreline in the middle of the village on Iceland's Strandir coast in the Westfjords. They were established in 1997 after a drilling operation struck a heated spring, and local residents built three small pools at varying temperatures, from cool to hot. The pots are free to use year-round, with donations accepted for upkeep, and offer views across the fjord toward Grímsey island while the adjacent ocean stays cold.
