Silfra Snorkeling
Golden Circle, Iceland
About This Activity
Experience the surreal Silfra fissure in Thingvellir National Park, where you snorkel between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates. The glacial spring water is so clear you can see over 100 meters. The water is a constant 2°C but dry suits keep you warm. Prices from ISK 22,000 (meet on location) to ISK 28,000 (with Reykjavík pickup). Plus ISK 1,500 park fee. An unforgettable, otherworldly experience.
Seasonal note: Best in summer
