Product Info

Please kindly recheck the pickup details, meeting point, and session time stated on the voucher for your selected package.

Embark on an underwater experience like no other: Snorkeling between tectonic plates at the Silfra Fissure. Silfra boasts up to 150m of underwater visibility and is frequently ranked as one of the top dive sites in the world.
Admire views of Iceland's stunning landscape as you ride from Reykjavik to the heart of Thingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Snorkel in this location for 45 min with your guide, before warming up with hot cocoa & cookies, then returning to the city. *Select Meet-on-Location to make your own way to Thingvellir - we'll meet you there!*
The glacier waters come from Langjökull, 50 km (30 miles) away, and make their way through lava fields to beautiful Thingvellir Lake. Although the chilly waters are too cold to support much in the way of marine life, Iceland's Silfra crack runs down between the American and European continental plates -drifting apart at 2cm per year- and offers amazing, ethereally blue underwater views.
