Christina's Review of Get Your Guide's Silfra Snorkeling Tour

What Christina thinks

Today I learned that you can snorkel between the two tectonic plates in Iceland. We met our guide, Anna Lena, in the parking lot and she gave us a warm undersuit. Then we went inside the heated van to change. The next part was putting on the dry suit, which was an experience in itself. We definitely needed help from our guide. After a quick safety briefing, we got the rest of the equipment: gloves, hood, fins, mask, and snorkel. We were ready. After a short walk, we entered the water. When we looked under, it looked like another planet. The visibility was crazy, and you really felt like you were flying. We spent around 40 minutes in the water and didn't feel cold, even though the temperature of the water was two degrees Celsius. The dry suits were really buoyant, so we didn't put much effort into swimming. Removing the equipment was easier than putting it on. Our guide prepared hot chocolate and gave us a candy bar, which was the best thing ever.
