About Siglufjörður Swimming Pool
Siglufjörður Swimming Pool (Sundhöll Siglufjarðar) is the town pool in Siglufjörður, a former herring-fishing town on the Tröllaskagi peninsula in North Iceland. It has an indoor 25-metre pool, 10 metres wide, and is part of a sports centre with a gym and a sports hall.
Outside there is a large hot tub with massage jets, a cold tub and a sauna. The pool was closed for repairs in summer 2026 and reopened on 24 August 2026. Ticket sales stop 15 minutes before closing.
The pool is at Hvanneyrarbraut 52 in the town. Siglufjörður is about 78 km from Akureyri, roughly 80 minutes by car through the Héðinsfjörður tunnels. The Ólafsfjörður pool, 15–20 minutes away through the tunnels, has an outdoor pool with water slides for anyone who wants to swim outdoors.
Under the 2026 price list, adult entry is 1,090 ISK and children, visitors aged 67+ and disabled visitors pay 520 ISK. Swimsuits and towels can be rented for 1,090 ISK each, or 3,150 ISK for entry with both. No booking is needed.
The winter timetable, from 20 August 2026, is Monday–Friday 06:30–19:45, Saturday 14:00–18:00 and Sunday 10:00–14:00. The pool is closed to the public during school swimming on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday mornings, so weekday afternoons are the most reliable time to visit.
