Description

Snorkel between two continents at the Silfra Fissure in Þingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Stay warm as you explore this magical underwater glacial world with a high-quality dry suit. Upon arrival, learn a bit about the fissure with your guide and get set up with all the required snorkeling gear. Explore the valley where the tectonic plates of North America and Europe drift further apart every year, located in the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Þingvellir National Park. Swim through the filtered, crystal-clear glacial meltwater with your guide. Admire the vibrant colors and keep your eyes peeled for local plant species and marine life like the dwarf char. Marvel at the vibrant colors of the glacier meltwater as you swim between two continents. After the activity, enjoy some hot drinks and cookies and receive photos taken on a GoPro as a souvenir of your memorable experience.
