Hofsos Swimming Pool

The Hofsós swimming pool opened in 2010, designed by Basalt Architects (Sigríður Sigþórsdóttir) following a private donation to the municipality. Heated by a local geothermal water supply, the 25 x 10.5 m pool sits at around 30-31°C with depths of 0.8-1.8 m, while an adjoining hot tub runs at 38-39°C. Its infinity-style edge creates the impression of merging with the cold waters of the fjord, with views toward the nearby basalt formations at Staðarbjargavík.
