Description

Snorkeling through the clearest water between two continents is one of the experiences in Iceland you shouldn’t miss. Silfra is a fissure created by the separation of the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates cutting through Iceland. The Silfra fissure fills with glacial water that has been filtered underground for decades through hardened, porous lava rock. The filtering process of the glacial water makes Silfra one of the clearest bodies of water on earth with up to 120 meters of visibility. Upon arrival at Silfra, your guide will give you a dry suit and snorkeling equipment. Guide will explain how to use this equipment and how to ensure that you will be warm and comfortable. The tour is operated all year round and only depends and might be cancelled due to the weather conditions.
