Sobre esta atividade

Be picked up from your Reykjavík accommodation (if option selected) in morning or afternoon, or meet at Thingvellir National Park, about 50 km from Reykjavik. Once you have met your PADI divemaster certified guide, he or she will be going through the procedure and safety measures of your tour. After, you will put on your gear and head to an exotic underwater canyon/fissure, Silfra, created as the continental plates drift apart at a rate of about 2 cm per year. Silfra is a freshwater fissure where you can see at least 100 meters ahead of you. The water here is so clear and pristine it feels like flying. The approximate time in the water is around 40 minutes.

By snorkeling in drysuit you will get protection from the cold water of the fissure as the suit is constructed from layers of insulating fabric. Therefore you should be dry and warm while you snorkel.

End the snorkeling tour by warming up with some hot chocolate before you head back.

This was seriously a cool excursion. The water is crystal clear and the dry suits keep you warm and dry. If you are worried about being cold...you won’t. Just make sure you wear long Johns or sweats under the Dry Suit. Our instructors (Bart and Adam) added to the fun of the excursion...they added a fun factor to the afternoon. Take it this way...How many chances in life do you get to snorkel between North America and Europe? They kept the group small (4 in our group) which made it more personalized.
