Creator's Key Takeaways

Overall, we really enjoyed the Blue Lagoon, and it's 100% something I recommend everyone do.

Honestly, I don't recommend it.

It was really pretty.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Check the bathroom sign in Iceland is WC and plan for public bathrooms being closed or coin-operated.
✓Consider using a shuttle for the plane crash walk to save time and effort.
✓Take off jewelry and keep hair out of the water at the Blue Lagoon to avoid damage from minerals.
✓Plan for parking costs and use camera-enforced lots to avoid tickets.

🆕New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Need for cash in Iceland — You don't need cash at all in Iceland; convert it back if you have any.
Bathroom access in cities — Public bathrooms are closed or coin-operated; be a customer at a restaurant or cafe to use facilities.
Weather and cold at campsites — Use the camper van heater even without electricity, as it's safe and prevents freezing.
