Lava Tunnel and Silfra Snorkeling - Meet on Location
Highlights
Description
Discover Iceland above and below ground on this unique combo adventure. Meet your guides on location and begin with a lava caving experience at Raufarhólshellir, one of Iceland’s longest lava tunnels. Walk through vast underground chambers shaped by volcanic eruptions and admire colorful rock formations and lava textures.
After the cave tour, continue to Thingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Here, you’ll snorkel in the famous Silfra fissure, where the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates meet.
Wearing a dry suit to stay warm, float through crystal-clear glacial water with visibility up to 150 meters (490 ft). Drift between continents, explore deep blue channels, and experience one of the most unique snorkeling sites in the world.
