Diving Silfra Under the Midnight Sun

Private Evening Dive

Experience one of the world’s most unique dive sites on this private evening dive in Silfra Fissure during Iceland’s midnight sun. Silfra, located in Þingvellir National Park, is a crack between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates, filled with glacial water filtered through lava rock for decades. The result is over 100 meters of visibility, making it the clearest dive water on the planet.

During the summer months, the park is quiet and serene, bathed in soft light from the midnight sun. Certified divers will have the extraordinary experience of placing one hand on the North American plate and the other on the Eurasian plate as they glide through the fissure. This private dive is ideal for experienced dry suit divers seeking an unforgettable Icelandic adventure.
