Silfra Snorkeling | From Reykjavík
Über die Reise
Silfra Snorkeling |Daytour with Transfer ab Reykjavík
The Silfra crevice in Thingvellir National Park is one of the world’s most popular and beautiful places among snorkelers. Due to the crystal clear water, visibility is over 100 meters on sunny days. Moreover, Silfra Fissure is the only place in the world where you can swim between two continental plates.
Professional training or a diving license are not necessary for this. The snorkeling adventures are therefore suitable for everyone and offer a special experience, even for experienced snorkelers. Silfra Fissure is located about 40 minutes by car from Reykjavik and is in the middle of Thingvellir National Park, which has been an official UNESCO World Heritage Site for several years. During your snorkeling trip, however, you will search in vain for fish or other sea creatures, as they rarely stray into the crevice. But algae provide a beautiful color spectacle. The green to red algae threads cover the rock formations of the crevice and thus provide a unique atmosphere and colorful underwater landscapes.
