Description

Experience the adventure of a lifetime with this extraordinary Silfra snorkeling tour, a must-do activity for anyone seeking an unparalleled underwater journey. Be amazed as you explore between the tectonic plates of North America and Eurasia right in the heart of Iceland's awe-inspiring landscape.

Your adventure commences as you arrive at the Silfra site, conveniently nestled within the breathtaking Thingvellir National Park, about a 50-minute drive from the vibrant city of Reykjavik. Upon arrival, you'll complete a quick medical form to ensure your safety throughout the experience.

Your friendly and knowledgeable snorkeling guide will then equip you with everything you need for this exceptional journey beneath the surface.

Stay warm and comfortable with the provided thermal undersuit, which keeps the chill at bay, and slip into the dry suit that ensures you stay completely dry while you explore. Fins are provided for effortless gliding through the crystalline waters, and a snorkel mask ensures you have a clear and unobstructed view of the astonishing underwater world that awaits.

Before you embark on your aquatic adventure, your skilled guide will impart essential snorkeling techniques and vital safety guidelines, ensuring you're well-prepared for the journey ahead. For your convenience, secure bags are available to safeguard your belongings. Then, take a brief, picturesque five-minute walk to the Silfra Fissure, building anticipation for the grand reveal that awaits.

The Silfra Fissure is renowned worldwide for its unparalleled water clarity, offering visibility of over an astounding 328 feet (100) meters. This remarkable clarity is a direct result of the melted glacial ice from the nearby Langjokull glacier, contributing to Silfra's reputation as one of the cleanest and purest bodies of water on our planet. 

As you snorkel through this enchanting underwater realm, you'll be fascinated by the mesmerizing aquatic vistas and the surreal sensation of floating between two immense tectonic plates.

Amid this awe-inspiring journey, be sure to capture every moment. Your certified snorkeling guide will expertly capture stunning GoPro photographs during your expedition, ensuring you have lasting mementos to cherish this remarkable experience.

This is your chance to participate in an unforgettable snorkeling voyage through Silfra, the sole location on Earth where you can intimately connect with the gap between tectonic plates. Seize this remarkable opportunity and create memories that will undoubtedly last a lifetime.
