Silfra Drysuit Snorkeling - Meet on Location | Free Photos

Summary Description

Choose to get picked up from your Reykjavik hotel or make your own way to the meeting point in Thingvellir National Park. Meet your PADI divemaster-certified guide who explains the procedures and demonstrates important safety measures.

With the help of your guide, don your provided dry suit and snorkel equipment and get ready to discover the underwater world of Silfra—a rift between the North American and Eurasian continental plates. Enjoy heightened visibility in these clear waters, where you can see more than 328 feet (100 meters) in front of you. While the water is cold year-round, you are kept warm and dry inside your insulating dry suit.

Afterward, toast the experience with a cup of hot chocolate before bidding farewell to your group. If you chose an option for hotel pickup and drop-off, enjoy transportation back to your accommodations.
