Small-Group Snorkeling Tour in Silfra with Equipment and Expert Guide

Join this unforgettable snorkeling adventure in Silfra, one of Iceland’s most iconic natural wonders. Float between two continents in crystal-clear glacial waters with a small group of friends or family. This private experience is designed for groups of up to six, giving you a personal and memorable adventure away from the crowds.

You’ll meet your guide at the Silfra meeting point in Thingvellir National Park, part of Iceland’s famous Golden Circle. Thingvellir is a UNESCO World Heritage site, and its unique geology makes Silfra one of the clearest and most extraordinary snorkeling destinations on Earth.

Silfra is a fissure formed between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates, filled with water filtered through underground lava rock for over 30 years. This natural filtration creates visibility of over 330 feet (100 meters), offering an unparalleled underwater experience.

During the tour, you’ll wear a thermal dry suit that keeps you warm in near-freezing water. Your guide will take you through four distinct sections of Silfra: the Big Crack, the Hall, the Cathedral, and the Lagoon. Each section showcases stunning rock formations, vibrant blue hues, and an almost surreal feeling of floating in liquid meditation.

Whether you are an experienced snorkeler or trying it for the first time, this peaceful underwater journey is both exhilarating and calming. It is a unique opportunity to connect with nature and witness Iceland’s extraordinary geological wonders up close.

The tour includes a professional guide exclusively for your group, full snorkeling gear including mask, snorkel, fins, gloves, and hood, and a thermal dry suit. Participants also receive a safety briefing before entering the water, as well as hot drinks and snacks afterward to warm up.

Bring warm clothes to wear under the dry suit, swimwear, a towel, and, optionally, a camera to capture your memories. Limiting the tour to just six participants ensures personalized attention, a relaxed atmosphere, and an intimate experience with nature.
