Snorkeling Silfra Tour with Pick up

Share it with friends

Snorkeling in Silfra

Silfra is a fissure between the North American and Eurasian continental plates. Silfra constantly fills with glacial water that has been trickling through underground lava rock for 30 years. This remarkable crack between two tectonic plates is therefore filled with the clearest water on our planet, allowing for over 100 meters visibility.

On the snorkeling tour we will dress you in a dry suit and guide you through the four parts of the Silfra fissure. Floating through Silfra's crystal clear water is an otherworldly experience; the near-freezing water, astonishing colors, and sensations of flying provide a very unique environment for liquid meditation that you will never forget.

What is Included?

guided snorkeling trip
all necessary snorkeling equipment
hot chocolate and cookies after the snorkeling trip
entrance fee of 1.500 ISK per person into Silfra
pick up at your accommodation in Reykjavik

What to Bring

Long underwear
thick socks
suitable clothes for the weather of the day
