World Hot Springs, a Global Catalogue of Geothermal Temptations

Editorial interest 82/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A searchable directory of 1,477 hot springs, geysers, and thermal bathing sites across 69 countries.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-01 issue.

Field notes

The directory groups entries by country, region, geyser status, and bathing temperature, with map markers leading to individual springs. Its coverage is uneven by country—Japan alone accounts for 733 listed sites—and only 477 entries have a published temperature in the homepage’s summary. The project says its photographs are free-licensed and its geographic data is open, giving the catalogue a reference-library quality rather than a simple travel list.
