Magnificent Fissure Snorkelling in Lake Silfra
The Magnificent Snorkeling In Lake Silfra Tour gives you access to an amazing underwater world filled with stunning natural beauty. The lake is located within Thingvellir National Park and gives you the chance to enjoy one of the most amazing pastimes of all, in a unique natural environment that few are able to enjoy. Lake Silfra is more than a mere glacial lake. It formed over the crack in the earth's crust where the American and European plates meet and includes some of the most stunning natural formations on earth. Swim to the deep crack itself or simply enjoy the beauty of the pure, crystalline waters in the lake. The waters are actually pushed up from the cracks in the floor, after traveling underground from Iceland's many glaciers. You'll need to wear warm clothing beneath your diving suit; the waters are quite cold!
However, many find that this site is one of the top locations for diving in the entire world. Gentle currents make it easy to reach the crack, while the simple fact of the dive location makes it incredibly popular, as well. You will enjoy professional dive guides, as well as dive classes if you are not scuba certified.
