What you can expect

  • Have an out-of-this-world adventure while drysuit snorkelling in Silfra rift, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Thingvellir National Park. The hidden natural wonder has 100 metres of underwater visibility with bright colours that make the experience almost unrealistic.

    Meet your guide and group directly at the site in Silfra and prepare to travel between two continents in the rift. Be guided through magnificent scenery and view Silfra from the surface while the slow current carries you through the stunning underwater landscape.
    Stay dry underneath your drysuit or, for the more adventurous, choose the wetsuit to feel the natural cool waters.
    Snorkel through the pure and clean waters of Silfra and end the tour in a lagoon often called “the real blue lagoon” because of the bright blue colour of its water.
