Cold water diving requires a different set of skills than warm water. For instance, to be a competent dry suit diver you must be able to control your buoyancy, clear air from your feet, and remove and replace your dry suit inflator hose. DIVE.IS runs the PADI Dry Suit Course on a daily basis and offers students a high quality, safe, fun and thorough introduction to dry suit diving taught by our experienced Dry Suit Instructors. Please be aware that although this course is taught in a fun and relaxing manner, it is a very physically demanding course and includes multiple dives in Iceland’s cold water conditions. https://www.youtube.com/embed/videoseries?list=PLZC75JyTj85yuivHyQvPjmPLh8Jh227ut 140 2019-01-09T08:07:34Z yes no no DIVE.IS https://www.dive.is/diving-snorkeling-tours/diving-day-tours/private-diving-day-tour https://i.ytimg.com/vi/GUi6sjVrD7I/maxresdefault.jpg DIVE.IS ICELAND HIGHLIGHT REEL Welcome to the underwater world of Iceland.

Davíðsgjá is not as famous as Silfra, but it is a favourite among local divers. At Davíðsgjá you can walk straight into the water and after a nice shallow swim in water that is usually warmer than Silfra, you will enter the long, deep and narrow fissure. The maximum depth of the dive in this fissure is 21 meters. Davíðsgjá often has incredible underwater visibility, although this varies and is more dependent on weather than in Silfra. The top of fissure in Davíðsgjá is actually about 7 meters underwater, which allows for more contact with the water in Thingvallavatn lake. It is therefore common that trout join the divers in exploring this fissure. https://www.youtube.com/embed/MLFjn8qUtTM 124 2019-01-05T09:23:24Z yes no no DIVE.IS https://www.dive.is/diving-snorkeling-tours/private-tours/private-snorkeling-day-tour https://i.ytimg.com/vi/YHcRAa4bz2U/maxresdefault.jpg Silfra - The Clearest Water On Earth Experience Silfra, the clearest water on earth.

Kleifarvatn is located about 30 km outside of Reykjavík and sits directly atop the mid-Atlantic ridge, the point at which the North American and Eurasian continental plates diverge. Kleifarvatn Lake is nestled within an impressive volcanic landscape, full of steep and amazingly colored hills and weird lava formations. Standing at the lake’s shore it is hard to believe that there is a populated city just 30 minutes away. This is the territory of trolls and elves. Lake Kleifarvatn’s position on the geothermally active area along the diverging tectonic plates provides some unusual features. Underwater hot springs were recently discovered about 10 meters from the shore on one side of the lake. In the center of the hot springs is a large crater that emits large quantities of warm water and gases. As the air bubbles are pushed through the crater on the lake floor, pressure causes the surrounding rocks to vibrate slightly. Divers can usually feel these vibrations themselves, which is a special experience! Kleifarvatn lake is also unusual because of its constantly rising and falling water levels despite the fact that the lake has no visible surface drainage, i.e. no connecting rivers. Changes in water level are due mostly to alterations in ground water level. For instance, the water level in the lake noticeably decreased in 2000 as water drained into the ground following earthquakes that created a fissure in the lake’s floor. Since then the water levels have risen again, but they must be checked frequently in order to gauge access to the dive site. Kliefarvatn Lake is a popular fishing site during the summer season and is known for unusually large brown trout and char. A monster the size of a whale and shape of a serpent is also said to inhabit the lake. As the lake partially freezes over during winter, both diving and fishing activities are paused during the winter season. https://www.youtube.com/embed/tjsDSTEnJUU 152 2019-01-05T18:26:33Z yes no no DIVE.IS https://www.dive.is/diving-snorkeling-tours/multiple-day-tours/day-reykjavik-dive-tour https://i.ytimg.com/vi/DWnOqZdvJpI/maxresdefault.jpg DIVE.IS - Diving In Iceland DIVE.IS - Padi Dive Center Iceland, offers diving and snorkeling tours to Iceland's top notch dive and snorkel sites.

Since then the water levels have risen again, but they must be checked frequently in order to gauge access to the dive site. Kliefarvatn Lake is a popular fishing site during the summer season and is known for unusually large brown trout and char. A monster the size of a whale and shape of a serpent is also said to inhabit the lake. As the lake partially freezes over during winter, both diving and fishing activities are paused during the winter season. https://www.youtube.com/embed/tjsDSTEnJUU 152 2019-01-05T18:26:33Z yes no no DIVE.IS https://www.dive.is/diving-snorkeling-tours/group-tours/lava-caving-aurora-basecamp https://i.ytimg.com/vi/tjsDSTEnJUU/maxresdefault.jpg KLEIFARVATN – Geothermal Diving and snorkeling site in Iceland Covering about eight square meters, Kleifarvatn is the largest lake on the Reykjanes peninsula and with a maximum depth of 90 meters is one of the deepest lakes in Iceland. Kleifarvatn is located about 30 km outside of Reykjavík and sits directly atop the mid-Atlantic ridge, the point at which the North American and Eurasian continental plates diverge. Kleifarvatn Lake is nestled within an impressive volcanic landscape, full of steep and amazingly colored hills and weird lava formations. Standing at the lake’s shore it is hard to believe that there is a populated city just 30 minutes away. This is the territory of trolls and elves. Lake Kleifarvatn’s position on the geothermally active area along the diverging tectonic plates provides some unusual features. Underwater hot springs were recently discovered about 10 meters from the shore on one side of the lake. In the center of the hot springs is a large crater that emits large quantities of warm water and gases. As the air bubbles are pushed through the crater on the lake floor, pressure causes the surrounding rocks to vibrate slightly. Divers can usually feel these vibrations themselves, which is a special experience! Kleifarvatn lake is also unusual because of its constantly rising and falling water levels despite the fact that the lake has no visible surface drainage, i.e. no connecting rivers.

Located between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates making it the only place on earth where you can dive and snorkel between two continents! Filled by melted glacial water, filtered by underground lava for 30-100 years makes the water extremely pure and clear.

Davíðsgjá is not as famous as Silfra, but it is a favourite among local divers. At Davíðsgjá you can walk straight into the water and after a nice shallow swim in water that is usually warmer than Silfra, you will enter the long, deep and narrow fissure. The maximum depth of the dive in this fissure is 21 meters. Davíðsgjá often has incredible underwater visibility, although this varies and is more dependent on weather than in Silfra. The top of fissure in Davíðsgjá is actually about 7 meters underwater, which allows for more contact with the water in Thingvallavatn lake. It is therefore common that trout join the divers in exploring this fissure. https://www.youtube.com/embed/MLFjn8qUtTM 124 2019-01-05T09:23:24Z yes no no DIVE.IS https://www.dive.is/dive-sites/gullfoss-geysir https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Peh7FJe60Vk/maxresdefault.jpg SILFRA - Diving and Snorkeling site in Iceland SILFRA, BETWEEN THE CONTINENTS The Geology of Silfra Silfra is a fissure between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates in Thingvellir National Park. The rift was formed in 1789 by the earthquakes accompanying the divergent movement of the two tectonic plates. The diving and snorkeling site at Silfra is right where the two continents meet and drift apart about 2 cm per year. Silfra is the only place in the world where you can dive or snorkel directly in a crack between two tectonic plates. The earthquakes of 1789 opened up several fissures in the Thingvellir area, but the Silfra fissure cut into the underground spring filled with glacial meltwater from the nearby Langjökull glacier. The water is filtered through porous underground lava for 30-100 years before reaching the spring that feeds into Silfra. The water is therefore extremely pure by the time it reaches the north end of Thingvellir lake and it allows for underwater visibility of over 100 meters in Silfra. The glacial meltwater remains very cold in Silfra, but as fresh water is constantly filling the fissure, the water never freezes and remains 2°C – 4°C year round. The underwater visibility of the water in Silfra will rarely, if ever, be surpassed. Silfra is said to have the clearest water in the world; feel free to have a sip of this pristine water at any point during your dive or snorkel. As Silfra is right at the crux between the tectontic plates, it is a very “living” dive site in that it is constantly undergoing changes, both large and small. The fissure widens incrementally, but more drastic changes to the depth profile have occurred during earthquakes in which boulders and rocks fall into the crack. This shifting of the earth creates new tunnels, caverns, and underwater terrain. On our Diving Silfra Day Tour we offer the PADI Silfra Tectonic Specialty Course, where we dive deeper into the geology of Silfra. https://www.youtube.com/embed/Peh7FJe60Vk 204 2019-01-09T18:20:45Z yes no no DIVE.IS https://www.dive.is/dive-sites/thingvellir-national-park https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Peh7FJe60Vk/maxresdefault.jpg SILFRA - Diving and Snorkeling site in Iceland SILFRA, BETWEEN THE CONTINENTS The Geology of Silfra Silfra is a fissure between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates in Thingvellir National Park.

The rift was formed in 1789 by the earthquakes accompanying the divergent movement of the two tectonic plates. The diving and snorkeling site at Silfra is right where the two continents meet and drift apart about 2 cm per year. Silfra is the only place in the world where you can dive or snorkel directly in a crack between two tectonic plates. The earthquakes of 1789 opened up several fissures in the Thingvellir area, but the Silfra fissure cut into the underground spring filled with glacial meltwater from the nearby Langjökull glacier. The water is filtered through porous underground lava for 30-100 years before reaching the spring that feeds into Silfra. The water is therefore extremely pure by the time it reaches the north end of Thingvellir lake and it allows for underwater visibility of over 100 meters in Silfra. The glacial meltwater remains very cold in Silfra, but as fresh water is constantly filling the fissure, the water never freezes and remains 2°C – 4°C year round. The underwater visibility of the water in Silfra will rarely, if ever, be surpassed. Silfra is said to have the clearest water in the world; feel free to have a sip of this pristine water at any point during your dive or snorkel. As Silfra is right at the crux between the tectontic plates, it is a very “living” dive site in that it is constantly undergoing changes, both large and small. The fissure widens incrementally, but more drastic changes to the depth profile have occurred during earthquakes in which boulders and rocks fall into the crack. This shifting of the earth creates new tunnels, caverns, and underwater terrain. On our Diving Silfra Day Tour we offer the PADI Silfra Tectonic Specialty Course, where we dive deeper into the geology of Silfra. https://www.youtube.com/embed/videoseries?list=PLZC75JyTj85wLNtzazw-AD2_sjcI8daHO 204 2019-01-09T18:20:45Z yes no no DIVE.IS https://www.dive.is/about-us/the-silfra-iceland-blog/iceland-guide/things-do-to-around-lake-kleifarvatn https://i.ytimg.com/vi/tjsDSTEnJUU/maxresdefault.jpg KLEIFARVATN – Geothermal Diving and snorkeling site in Iceland Covering about eight square meters, Kleifarvatn is the largest lake on the Reykjanes peninsula and with a maximum depth of 90 meters is one of the deepest lakes in Iceland. Kleifarvatn is located about 30 km outside of Reykjavík and sits directly atop the mid-Atlantic ridge, the point at which the North American and Eurasian continental plates diverge. Kleifarvatn Lake is nestled within an impressive volcanic landscape, full of steep and amazingly colored hills and weird lava formations. Standing at the lake’s shore it is hard to believe that there is a populated city just 30 minutes away. This is the territory of trolls and elves. Lake Kleifarvatn’s position on the geothermally active area along the diverging tectonic plates provides some unusual features. Underwater hot springs were recently discovered about 10 meters from the shore on one side of the lake. In the center of the hot springs is a large crater that emits large quantities of warm water and gases. As the air bubbles are pushed through the crater on the lake floor, pressure causes the surrounding rocks to vibrate slightly. Divers can usually feel these vibrations themselves, which is a special experience! Kleifarvatn lake is also unusual because of its constantly rising and falling water levels despite the fact that the lake has no visible surface drainage, i.e. no connecting rivers. Changes in water level are due mostly to alterations in ground water level. For instance, the water level in the lake noticeably decreased in 2000 as water drained into the ground following earthquakes that created a fissure in the lake’s floor. Since then the water levels have risen again, but they must be checked frequently in order to gauge access to the dive site. Kliefarvatn Lake is a popular fishing site during the summer season and is known for unusually large brown trout and char. A monster the size of a whale and shape of a serpent is also said to inhabit the lake. As the lake partially freezes over during winter, both diving and fishing activities are paused during the winter season. https://www.youtube.com/embed/tjsDSTEnJUU 152 2019-01-05T18:26:33Z yes no no DIVE.IS https://www.dive.is/about-us/the-silfra-iceland-blog/diving-in-iceland/why-diving-in-silfra-needs-to-be-on-your-bucket-list https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Peh7FJe60Vk/maxresdefault.jpg SILFRA - Diving and Snorkeling site in Iceland SILFRA, BETWEEN THE CONTINENTS The Geology of Silfra Silfra is a fissure between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates in Thingvellir National Park.
