Description

Slip into Silfra’s astonishing blue water on a flexible self-drive snorkelling experience in Þingvellir National Park, where a drysuit keeps you comfortably protected while the fissure reveals visibility that can stretch beyond 100 metres.

Meet directly beside Silfra, receive a careful equipment fitting and follow your guide through the Big Crack, Silfra Hall, the cathedral-like depths and the peaceful lagoon. Filtered through lava for decades, the water creates a luminous underwater landscape of deep blues and sculpted rock.

The meet-on-location format leaves the rest of your Golden Circle day entirely in your hands, while included underwater photographs give you a memorable record of floating between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates.

Choose your date and make Silfra the brilliant blue highlight of your self-drive adventure.
