Enjoy a unique snorkelling experience in the Silfra fault, between the Eurasian and American tectonic plates in Iceland!
A must for divers in Iceland, Silfra offers a unique environment for snorkelling in Thingvellir (Þingvellir) National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. With its magnificent blue waters offering visibility of up to 100 metres, the Silfra Fault snorkelling site is not to be missed if you want to enjoy an underwater experience in Iceland!
For 30 to 40 minutes, you will dive into cool water at a temperature of between 2 and 4 degrees all year round: the drysuit option is the most recommended, especially in winter, while the wetsuit option is more suitable for people who aren't afraid of feeling the coolness of the water against their skin (more details in the options). Your snorkelling session in the Silfra Fault will take place alongside a guide who will show you the beauty of this extraordinary place while ensuring your safety.
Located less than an hour's drive from Reykjavík, the Silfra snorkelling site in the heart of Thingvellir National Park will offer you one of the best snorkelling experiences of your life: don't hesitate any longer and take a front row seat to the fault separating the Eurasian and American tectonic plates with this snorkelling excursion in Silfra!
