Silfra

The entire experience with pickup is about half a day, you only spend less than an hour in the water. The drive from Reykjavik is about 45 minutes, prep time of getting into the suits, and briefing is about an hour. When you finally get in the water you are treated to some of the most beautiful and drinkable water I’ve ever seen - don’t drink too much or you may end up buying your suit. If you are lucky to get some sunshine while you snorkel the water elevates to something mind blowing. The only downside to this adventure is that the area is inhabited by minges who are incredibly annoying so be prepared to constantly swat them or look silly so they don’t bother you. You end up in a small group with a guide which makes the experience even better. I would easily do this experience again.

Ikke dårlig. Da vi ankom, var flyten veldig jevn. Før vi gikk i vannet, forklarte de ruten vi skulle svømme. Guiden vår sa at hvis vi ble slitne, kunne vi ta en pause, og han ville fortelle oss hvilke områder vi ikke kunne svømme i (fordi det var for dypt). Jeg tenkte at det var greit å bare følge guiden, men han stoppet nesten aldri, så hvis du ikke svømte etter ham, ville du falle bak. Vi måtte svømme helt til sprekken, hvor han tok et bilde av oss, og deretter svømme rundt tilbake til et annet ilandstigningssted. Det tok omtrent 1,5 time med svømming uten mange pauser. På land fikk vi energibarer og varm sjokolade. Guiden var veldig hyggelig. Hvis jeg hadde vært i bedre form, ville jeg ha likt det enda mer! En av mine venner fikk vann i tørrdrakten sin og ble veldig kald halvveis, så hvis du kan, husk å ta med et ekstra sett med klær og forkjølelsesmedisin.
