The water in Silfra is filtered through volcanic lava rock for decades before reaching the fissure, creating visibility that often exceeds 100 meters. Combined with dramatic underwater rock formations and deep blue colors, Silfra is widely considered one of the most remarkable freshwater dive sites in the world.

If you have limited dry suit experience, please inform us in advance. Recent dry suit diving experience is strongly recommended.
