Silfra Snorkelling

We arrived in Oslo so were finally able to look through the GoPro SD card from our Silfra Snorkel.

The water travels underground from a glacier and only surfaces at Silfra which makes it a constant temperature of 2-3 degrees Celsius all year. This was truly a once in a lifetime opportunity and is considered some of the clearest water in the world. Even though the photos are very impressive, even they don’t do the experience justice!Leia mais
