Snorkelling in the Blue Lagoon’s natural aquarium will be an amazing and unforgettable part of your visit. You will enter the lagoon to explore its underwater environment at close range, moving among the natural formations and spaces that give the area its “aquarium” character. Along the way you may observe marine life and the textures of the seabed as you take in the quiet of the water.
On land, walking the white sands of the beach will be a very enjoyable contrast to the snorkelling. You will stroll along bright, sandy shoreline and take in the coastal scenery as you move between the water and the shore. Together, the time in the lagoon and the walk on the beach offer a simple, well-rounded experience of both underwater and seaside landscapes at the Blue Lagoon.
