Reyðarfjörður Swimming Pool

Reyðarfjörður Swimming Pool is at Heiðarvegur 13, the town’s sports-facility address.

Ask whether the facility is admitting public swimmers, which hours apply, how admission is handled and which bathing areas are open. Visitors who need step-free changing, assisted pool entry or another access feature should ask about that arrangement at the same time, because no pool-specific accessibility statement is available. Until the municipality publishes current operating information, the address is useful for identification but does not by itself confirm that the pool is open to visitors.
