An absolutely memorable day! Joaquin and team took great care of us while making sure we were fully equipped and ready to experience an unforgettable morning of snorkeling the tectonic divide. They also give you an entire photo album of your experience at the end of your day. 5 stars all around!

We had a great snorkeling experience! Thomas was a fantastic guide—friendly, attentive, and very knowledgeable. He explained everything clearly and made us feel comfortable throughout the tour. I also asked if he could record a specific video with the GoPro they use during the tour, and he was more than happy to do it. I really appreciated the extra effort. Thank you, Thomas!

It was a really wonderful experience. At first I was a bit sceptic if it was worth doing this but I loved every second of it and I would totally recommend it. Our guide, Steven, was amazing!

Snorkel between tectonic plates at Silfra and capture your underwater adventure with included GoPro photos, a 3-hour experience.

Getting started

Arrive at the Silfra meeting point in Thingvellir National Park, where your certified guide will greet you and check your signed medical statement. After a safety briefing, you’ll receive your drysuit, thermal undersuit, and snorkeling gear before walking to the entry point.

What to expect

Silfra Fissure

Silfra is a world-renowned snorkeling site, located in the rift between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates. The glacial water, filtered through volcanic rock, offers visibility over 100 meters, making it some of the clearest water on the planet.

Features

Continental rift snorkeling: Float directly between two continents in crystal-clear, glacier-fed water, a geological phenomenon unique to Silfra.

Certified guide: Explore safely with an expert who provides all instructions and ensures your comfort throughout the experience.

GoPro underwater photos: Receive complimentary digital photos of your journey, captured by your guide.

Premium equipment: Use a drysuit, thermal undersuit, fins, and mask for warmth and ease in the cold water.

Warm treats: Enjoy a Hraun chocolate bar and hot chocolate after your swim, included to help you warm up.

Secure storage: Personal belongings are safely stored while you snorkel.

What to bring

Bring thermal underwear (top and bottom), an extra pair of warm socks, and a change of clothes.

Wear warm clothes as your first layer.

Bring contact lenses if you require vision correction, as eyeglasses cannot be worn with the snorkeling mask.

Remove all jewelry (earrings, necklaces, watches, wristbands, rings, etc.) before the tour.

Bring a signed and completed Snorkeling Medical Statement; participants aged 60–69 must also provide a signed doctor’s waiver.
