Marvel over an underwater world bursting with geothermal activity with this unforgettable snorkeling tour in Lake Kleifarvatn. Any traveler looking to witness Iceland’s magnificent, hidden worlds will find this tour to be a perfect choice.
This excursion begins when you are picked up in Reykjavik by your expert guide and driven to your destination along the Reykjanes Peninsula. This part of Iceland is renowned for its volcanic landscapes, with countless cone-shaped peaks, endless fields of moss-coated lava, and many geothermal areas. As such, the 30-minute journey will fly by.
Once you get to Kleifarvatn, your guide will supply you with a drysuit, a wetsuit hood, wetsuit gloves, fins, and your mask and snorkel. You’ll then get a briefing on how to navigate the lake safely before being led into the water to start your adventure.
Once you put your head underwater, you’ll instantly find yourself in a world of beauty. The clarity is stunning, and as soon as you enter, you’ll be able to see bubbles rising from the colorful lake bed. Your guide will lead you further out, and you’ll watch as this activity increases until you reach the central caldera.
Here, you’ll be blessed with one of the most unique and unforgettable views Iceland has to offer. In very few places on earth can you witness geothermal forces at work in such a way, and in even less can you find an example so breathtaking. You’ll have plenty of time to marvel over this stunning site and may even feel the water vibrating under volcanic pressure.
After this fantastic experience, your guide will lead you back to shore. Once you have returned your equipment, they will take you to the Seltun hot spring area for the final component of this tour. Here, you’ll get to see more geothermal forces in the form of hot springs and vividly colored earth, but this time from dry ground.
Your guide will then return you to Reykjavik to continue your day!
