Silfra Snorkelling Experience

Can you imagine snorkelling between two continents? Dive into the Silfra fissure and swim between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates.

Silfra Snorkelling Experience

We will meet at the Thingvellir National Park visitors' center and board a bus to travel across this UNESCO World Heritage Site. An expert guide will provide safety information for the activity.

After a brief journey, we will arrive at the Silfra fissure to get equipped and commence our snorkelling experience in this unique natural setting.

Silfra offers over 262 feet (80 meters) of visibility, making it one of the best snorkelling spots globally, positioned between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates.

We will snorkel for 45 minutes, exploring the canyon walls and the crystal-clear waters' shades of blue and natural flora. The fissure widens into Silfra Hall, revealing a full spectrum of colors and clarity. We will then proceed to Silfra Cathedral and conclude our snorkelling experience at the Real Blue Lagoon.
