Silfra: Snorkling mellan tektoniska plattor - Träffas på plats





Beskrivning
Njut av en upplevelse en gång i livet med en snorklingstur i Silfra-sprickan! Flyt mellan två tektoniska plattor, mellan kontinenterna, i det klaraste vattnet i världen (100m+ sikt) medan du beundrar de fascinerande färgerna i denna undervattensvärld. Du behöver inte vara en certifierad dykare för att uppleva vattnet som klarast! Snorkling på Silfra passar alla som känner sig bekväma i vattnet och vet hur man simmar. Denna familjevänliga aktivitet är lämplig för barn från 12 år. Snorkelrundturen i Silfra görs i en torrdräkt, vilket hjälper dig att hålla dig varm och torr inuti dräkten medan du simmar i det kalla, kristallklara vattnet. Silfra ligger i Thingvellir nationalpark som är ett UNESCO-arv. Den vackra parken är ett av underverken på den berömda gyllene cirkeln.

This was such a cool experience made absolutely fabulous by our guide Emilio. Went with my 12 and 15 y/o who have minimal snorkeling experience and they did great. We wore long johns as a base layer and the outfitter provides a thick warm jumpsuit layer that fits under the dry suit. Your lips are really the only thing that get cold but it goes away. Emilio made sure that everyone felt comfortable and at ease, paid attention to little details. It seems like all of the guides are exceptional. We made the mistake of not bringing cash to tip and there were no electronic ways to do so, like venmo, etc. Bring cash! If all guides are as fantastic as Emilio you will want to tip!!
Unable to do as I did not have ability to get medical clearance as we booked too close to date . Non negotiating at 60 years old with no health issues this is a ridiculous policy for snorkeling , ageism.
Fantastic time - Alex T was a kind, patient and attentive guide, he made the entire experience calming and more enjoyable. Truly a unique experience for those whom hold a passion for nature and adventure. The scenery was absolutely stunning especially the underwater troll hair.
This a bucket list activity that you absolutely have to do!! They fully outfit you in all the gear to keep you warm and comfortable. It is a stunning view from the moment you put your face in the water.
such a unique snorkeling experience! After changing in a heated van, the staff expertly outfits you with the dry suit, gloves, hood, fins, mask and snorkel you need for the swim. Our guide Anaiza was friendly and fun, and took great photos during the tour. Afterwards, there's hot cocoa and cookies.
I recently did the snorkeling tour at Silfra in Iceland, and it was hands-down one of the most incredible experiences of my life. The water is unbelievably clear (visibility easily 100+ meters), and swimming between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates feels like something out of a fantasy movie. The vibrant blues and greens, the underwater rock formations, and the sheer scale of the fissure left me speechless. What made the trip truly exceptional was our guide, Emma. From the moment we met, she was warm, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable. She gave us a thorough briefing on the equipment and safety procedures that put everyone at ease (especially first-timers like me). In the water, Emma was attentive, pointing out interesting geological features and even spotting a few small fish we might have missed. Her calm, encouraging style made the whole group feel safe and excited throughout the tour. The drysuit kept me perfectly warm despite the 2–4°C (35–39°F) water temperature, and the entire experience was extremely well-organized. Everything from the pickup in Reykjavik to the hot chocolate and snacks afterward was top-notch. If you’re even thinking about snorkeling in Iceland, do not hesitate — book the Silfra tour with Emma. This is a bucket-list adventure you’ll remember forever. Thank you, Emma and the whole team, for making it so special! Highly recommend — 5 stars! Would do it again in a heartbeat.
Excellent experience overall. My guide, Emma, was very knowledgeable and helpful in making sure the group knew what to expect and had a great time. Highly recommend!
This is a very unique experience and something that we absolutely loved. We had six people in our group and had an excellent time.
While it's a bit of time preparing for the snorkeling, it's definitely worth it! Water so clear you can see the bottom of the river/lake, and so beautiful!
Fun and unique experience on our first full day in Iceland. Very different than all the tropical snorkeling we’ve done. Water was so clear and blue and you can drink it! Our guide, Emile, was great!
