Snorkelling Silfra Tour
Tour Overview
Silfra is a fissure between the North American and Eurasian continental plates. Silfra is constantly filled 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 metres visibility.
On the snorkelling tour you will be dressed in a drysuit and guided through the four parts of the Silfra fissure. Floating through Silfra’s crystal clear water is an otherworldly experience; the near-freezing water, astonishing colours, and sensations of flying provide a very unique environment for liquid meditation that you will never forget.
