Cold & Hot: Silfra Snorkeling & Sky Lagoon - with Snorkeling Photos

  • Operated by Adventure Vikings

Overview

Silfra snorkelling followed by Sky Lagoon admission on a self-drive day of about seven hours, with a guide, underwater photos and a towel included, for guests aged 12 and over.

An English-speaking guide runs the snorkel in the Silfra fissure at Þingvellir and supplies the equipment, with underwater photos and hot chocolate afterwards. Sky Lagoon admission follows and covers the seven-step ritual, public changing facilities and a towel.

Guests drive themselves to Silfra and on to the lagoon; no transfer is included, and food, drink, swimwear and thermals are not provided. Snorkellers must be able to swim, measure 145–200 cm, weigh 45–120 kg and sign a medical statement and liability release; the operator does not recommend the snorkel for pregnant guests.
