When the weather is bad, the days are short and the northern lights are nowhere to be seen, we focus inward and enjoy the lights and the warmth inside. At Lava we have the most beautiful chandelier sculpture made by Marcos at Basalt Architects.

At Lava Centre we do our best to explain the ongoing eruption and the effect it has on key infrastructure in the area.
A the centre there are live streams from the eruption site as well as multiple interactive displays to help our guests understand what is happening.

🌋The lava flow has advanced beyond the primary road leading to Grindavík and has reached the primary geothermal pipeline supplying the towns across the Reykjanes Peninsula. These towns rely on geothermal water from this pipeline for heating. The gravity of the situation cannot be understated.❗

This morning after a short seismic activity an eruption started just north of the; municipality of Grindavík. In the afternoon a second fissure opened even closer to town and the lava steam has now entered town and engulfed a few houses. Our heart goes out to the people of Grindavík. #Grindavik

🗻What's a jökulhlaup? It's a unique glacial outburst flood, a term from Iceland now used worldwide in glaciology.
🌊These floods are massive releases of water from beneath glaciers. #Jökulhlaup #GlacialFlood

An eruption started on the Reykjanes Peninsula on the eve of 18 December. The fissure is about 4 km (2.5 mi) long and more powerful than the previous three that erupted in ‘21, ‘22 and summer of ‘23.
Thankfully the lava is currently flowing away from the town of Grindavík. #icelandvolcano #iceland
