Getting from Reykjavík to the Blue Lagoon is simple and stress-free with our scheduled transfer service. Operated by Destination Blue Lagoon, Iceland’s official Blue Lagoon transport partner, this comfortable coach service picks you up directly from your Reykjavík accommodation and delivers you to the world-famous geothermal spa in approximately 45 minutes.

The journey from Reykjavík takes you across the stunning Reykjanes Peninsula, passing dramatic lava fields and volcanic landscapes before arriving at the iconic milky-blue waters of the Blue Lagoon. Whether you’re planning a half-day relaxation break or combining your spa visit with other Reykjavík excursions, our transfer service provides the perfect hassle-free connection.

Transfer Schedule & Times

Our Reykjavík to Blue Lagoon transfers operate multiple times daily, with schedules aligned to the Blue Lagoon’s opening hours. Departure times may vary seasonally and due to volcanic activity on the Reykjanes Peninsula.

⚠️ Important: Due to ongoing volcanic activity near Grindavík, schedules may change. We recommend checking current availability when booking. The Blue Lagoon monitors conditions closely and our transfers operate whenever the lagoon is open.

  • Morning: 09:00, 10:00, 11:00
  • Afternoon: 12:00, 13:00, 14:00, 15:00
