Iceland's famous Blue Lagoon has been temporarily closed as lava continues to spill from a volcanic fissure on the Reykjanes Peninsula.

Iceland's seismic monitors say the eruption created a fissure around 3 kilometers, but they estimated the eruption was considerably smaller than the previous eruption in August.

REYKJAVIK – A fishing village and tourist hot spot in south-west Iceland was evacuated late on Nov 20 after a volcano erupted in the region for the seventh time in a year, officials said.

Steady volcanic activity continues to approach the iconic Blue Lagoon resort on Iceland's Reykjanes Peninsula, following the eruption last week. The Icelandic Meteorological Office (IMO) reported Thursday that lava flows are expanding east and southeast from the eruptive vent near Fagradalsfjall.

A NASA satellite image captures Iceland's latest volcanic eruption, showing lava flowing near the Blue Lagoon. The eruption, which has not affected flights, resulted in the evacuation of around 3,800 residents and is similar to past powerful eruptions in the region.
