Diving Silfra, Caves & Volcanoes
Through lava filtered water in Silfra
On this tour you will dive the pristine, lava filtered water in Silfra. Silfra is a fissure created by the separation of the Eurasian and North American continental plates. The fissure continuously fills with crystal clear glacial water, making this a dive with unparalleled visibility. It is a truly spectacular dive, not to be missed by any dry suit diver in Iceland! Following the dives, you will explore phenomenal lava caves on foot. The ancient caves are full of utterly weird and wonderful rock formations as well as a splattering of amazing colors.
