To fit in with the locals, it's best to be barefoot at the Sky Lagoon. Outdoor shoes are not permitted around the lagoon to protect the floor from bacteria and dirt. It is possible to wear flip flops, which some visitors prefer to do, especially in the winter months when the ground is cold underfoot.

YES! It is mandatory to shower without swimsuit before entering the lagoon. It is part of the Icelandic culture to do so and considered disrespectful if you do not shower. This rule is there for your health and safety as well, as we do not use any chemicals in the lagoon.

There are plenty of other thermal pools and hot springs to explore in Iceland, like the Sky Lagoon, Secret Lagoon, Myvatn Nature Baths, and many more.

The slippers are single use and yours to keep. Also note that Blue Lagoon shower gel and conditioner are complimentary for all guests and can be found in the shower facilities. There is also Blue Lagoon moisturizer in the drying area.

The fact of the matter is that Blue Lagoon's water does in many cases make your hair quite weird. The minerals in the water will coat each and every hair making it stiff and feel dry even though it isn't really.
