If you are interested in seeing Iceland underwater, then this tour is for you! Silfra is a crack or fissure in the face of the earth, between the Eurasian and American plates which are drifting apart by a few inches every year. The water in Silfra comes up from the lava, after traveling underground from Iceland's glaciers. You'll find that swimming out of the fissure is effortless because of the mild current that propels you forward.
