Silfra Snorkeling and Fontana Spa Combo: Between Continents & Into the Steam

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!)
De Silfra Fissure ligt in het prachtige Þingvellir National Park, een UNESCO-werelderfgoedlocatie op slechts 45 minuten van 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

Silfra Snorkelen
Snorkeling in the Silfra fissure is our first adventure. The Silfra fissure is one of Iceland’s best-kept secrets, an otherworldly scene that is world-famous for its heavenly shades of blue. Frequently rated as one of the world's top ten dive sites, the Silfra offers up to 100 meters of underwater visibility. The crystal clear water in the deep fissure gives you a feeling of being weightless as you float down with the lazy current. Snorkeling is a relaxing but exotic trip in an environment most will only encounter in their dreams.

Fontana Spa
Fontana is right by the shores of Laugarvatn lake. Like many areas in Iceland, Laugarvatn and its surroundings sit on top of a geothermal hot spot. This means that the earth beneath is simmering with boiling water, erupting into geysers here and there. This warm water has been used for cooking, bathing, and heating up buildings in Laugarvatn for generations and is the foundation of the area's bathing culture.

For the Fontana Spa, please drive to Fontana Steam by the lake Reception. There is a parking lot near the Spa where you can leave your vehicle. Please make sure to arrive a bit in advance to check in at the reception.

Een 100%-heffing geldt indien deze binnen 1 dagen na de starttijd wordt geannuleerd.
Gratis annuleren tot 365 dagen voor de starttijd.
