SECRET LAGOON, Flúðir, ICELAND
Created in 1891, this geothermal pool 100km from Reykjavík is rural and rugged, but is less crowded and has better views than the more famous Blue Lagoon. There are changing rooms, indoor showers and just one pool, but the volcanic surrounds and snowy plateaux make up for the lack of modern facilities. The pool water stays at 38-40C all year round, with a little geyser that erupts every five minutes. The cafe serves hot drinks and snacks. In the evening (the pool closes at 8pm) there’s a chance of glimpsing the northern lights.
