Silfra Diving Tour – Self Drive
Feel free to contact us
Description
Meet directly at Þingvellir for a world-class drysuit dive through Silfra, where intensely clear glacial water reveals the sculpted volcanic corridor between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates.
The self-drive format gives qualified divers freedom to shape the surrounding day, while a specialist guide prepares the scuba equipment, checks credentials and leads the route through Silfra’s dramatic blue rift.
With visibility often exceeding 100 metres, this compact experience delivers extraordinary underwater detail and a memorable sense of scale in one of Iceland’s most famous natural settings.
Bring your certification, meet at Silfra and experience a freshwater dive that belongs on every cold-water diver’s wish list.
