Don't miss the unique opportunity to go snorkeling among geothermal hot springs! This is generally impossible due to the high temperatures present in such locations around the world. But the Kleifarvatn lake offers the chance to swim safely among the geothermal bubbles. We will meet at the Seltún Geothermal Area where we will walk around boiling mud pots. The guide will brief you on your upcoming snorkeling tour and the volcanic and geothermal area you are located in. You will then drive yourself after the Dive car the short drive to Lake Kleifarvatn. After gearing up and getting a detailed briefing about the activity, we will start our adventure. Although the hot springs are located about 50 meters from the shore, you will see the geothermal sediments as soon as you enter the water. It is a unique underwater landscape. As we approach the springs, you will start feeling the environment around you changing - this experience has often been described as swimming in a glass of champagne. After the tour, we will warm up with hot chocolate and cookies. This tour requires a minimum of 2 participants to run.

5.00If you do one thing while visiting Iceland, make it this tour. Even better, try and get Kira as your guide. Kira is friendly, helpful, knowledgeable, and an expert. My husband and I are on our honeymoon and we can’t stop smiling after this experience! The views are breathtaking. The dry suits keep you comfortable and shielded against the very cold water! You’re far more likely to come out laughing than shivering.
Such a cool experience!

4.00What an experience! Really quite magical being in such clear water & just gliding through, not much 'swimming' was required at all, due to the flow of the water. Our guide Eeva was amazing! So lovely & helpful, really prepared us for the water & what to expect, plus helped with the suits, hoods, etc - which was needed! My partner found the snorkeling quite overwhelming as he had never done it before, but Eeva was really understanding & supportive. We were both so glad we did it!! Lovely hot chocolate & biscuits to finish with, before we headed the 30 min drive away to the spa. This spa was small, but had more locals than tourists, which was nice & provided a good opportunity to really warm up & reset after the snorkeling. > Wear thermals or a layer to have underneath your suit, your clothes will stay dry, but you might experience some leaks around your neck. You're putting your suits on all together, so have your underneath layer on already. > Have some warm layers to wear later, hats & gloves are a good option! > Arrive early or stick around after the snorkeling to explore more of the park.
Eeva made our dive awesome!

Amazing Experience Snorkeling in Iceland (guide Alex)

4.00Snorkeling between the tectonic plates was amazing and our tour guide Alex was excellent. He explained everything clearly and was very helpful throughout the entire time we were together. Snorkeling in Iceland in winter is tricky. Getting the dry suits on is even trickier (and very uncomfortable), but it was all worth it. Highly recommend giving this a try if you are visiting Iceland, but it is not for everyone. You really need to be comfortable in water and know that the suit is very restrictive especially around your wrists and throat.
Great!

5.00Chris was brilliant at making us feel secure but having a laugh. We had a full understanding before we went in what to expect and the experience itself was second to none. Can’t wait to see the photos
I highly recommend snorkeling in Silfra with the DIVE.IS team (guide: Eleonora)

5.00I highly recommend snorkeling in Silfra with the DIVE.IS team and if you are lucky, Eleonora will be your guide. Eleonora is an excellent diving & snorkeling instructor. Her safety briefing was detailed but not boring. She even found the time to mention a few facts about the geology of the Tingvellir Park, which explains why diving & snorkeling in Silfra is such a unique experience. I was in a group of first-time snorkelers, but that was not a problem because Eleonora had a lot of good humor and patience, helped us with fitting and putting on every piece of gear. Before we entered the water she carefully checked that we were ready. While in the water, Eleonora pays a lot of attention to each group member/customer, makes sure everyone is safe, has a good time AND has their chance for an excellent photograph. Her photos are excellent, worth every Krona/Euro/Dollar.
