Snorkel between two continents in the crystal-clear waters of the Silfra Fissure at Þingvellir National Park, then unwind at Fontana Spa in Laugarvatn. Soak in geothermal baths, sweat it out in a steam sauna, and warm up lakeside after your glacial swim. Dry suits and all snorkeling gear are included — just bring your sense of adventure. Tour Highlights
- Snorkel between two continents in the Silfra Fissure, one of the clearest bodies of water on Earth
- Experience the clearest waters in the world! The glacial water originates from Langjökull (Long Glacier) and is naturally filtered through lava fields, resulting in some of the purest water on Earth, with an incredible visibility of up to 150 meters.
- Dry suits, thermal layers, and all snorkeling gear are included, so no experience or certification is needed (basic swimming skills are enough!)
- The Silfra Fissure is located in the stunning Þingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site only 45 minutes from Reykjavík
- Drive yourself to Laugarvatn Fontana and soak in geothermal baths with views over Lake Laugarvatn
- Finish the day in Fontana's steam saunas, built directly over natural hot springs
- A self-drive combo that pairs Iceland's coldest adventure with one of its warmest rewards
