Lava from a nearby volcanic flow consumed the entire parking lot of Blue Lagoon geothermal spa resort in Grindavik, Iceland, at 14:00 local time on November 21, 2024.

The entire parking lot of Blue Lagoon geothermal spa resort near Grindavik, Reykjanes Peninsula, Iceland was consumed by lava around 14:00 local time (LT) on November 21, 2024.

Lava started flowing toward the resort around 12:00 LT and took about 2 hours to reach the parking lot. According to local media reports, a small service house near the lot was also burned.

At the moment, there are no indications that other structures of the Blue Lagoon or the power plant in Svartsengi are threatened by lava leakage.

Around 200 people were at the resort when the eruption began at 23:14 local time on November 20. They, along with all residents who had returned to Grindavik after the previous eruption in August, were evacuated overnight. ....

A new volcanic fissure opened up between Stóra-Skógfell and Sýlingarfell, near the town of Grindavík, Iceland’s Reykjanes Peninsula, at 23:14 local time (LT) on Wednesday, November 20, 2024. This marked the year’s seventh eruption in this region.

The eruption was preceded by a small earthquake swarm at around 22:30 local time (LT), followed by pressure changes in boreholes operated by HS Orka at 22:37 LT.

“Both independent measurements were a clear sign of the onset of a magma intrusion,” the Icelandic Met Office (IMO) reported.

Although initial reports indicated lava was not moving southward toward Grindavík, the town was evacuated. Nearby Blue Lagoon geothermal spa was closed and some 200 people who were present there were also evacuated. ....
