This natural pool at Krossnes by Strandir in the West Fjords peninsula is one of the most interesting pools in Iceland . It is located in a remote place; the surrounding area is stunning with mountains on one side and the ocean on the other side. The pool and dressing rooms are well maintained; there are showers that allow for a long shower, and the whole experience is just a joy up there near the arctic circle. Although rare, it is sometimes possible to spot whales from the pool swimming by in the ocean.
