Delve into the immaculate, transparent waters of Silfra, submerging between two continental plates.

Silfra, a geologic fault, was formed by the shifting of the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates.

The glacial water that fills the Silfra fissure has undergone decades of purification by passing through subterranean lava rock, providing visibility for over 100 meters underwater. The aquatic panorama that you witness in Silfra is a unique world sight, an absolute must for any diving bucket list.

The Silfra diving journey is taken in a dry suit, thus ensuring your internal warmth and dryness during the dive.

Your exploration will cover the four primary sections of Silfra - the large crack, Silfra hall, Silfra Cathedral, and the Silfra Lagoon. There will be an opportunity to touch both continents at one point – make sure to capture that moment!

Silfra is nestled in the Thingvellir National Park, a proud member of the Unesco heritage sites. The outstanding park is a part of the globally renowned Golden Circle route.
