Reykjavík Whales & Diving: Drive yourself to Þingvellir national park which is about 45 km. from Reykjavík. Diving in the crystal clear glacial water in Silfra with over 100m view of its stunning surroundings is an amazing experience. Adding to that you are swimming between two continents and get an excellent view of the crack separating the European and American continental shells. The total time of diving is approximately 3 hours, including one dive and a view of Silfra Hall, Silfra Chathedral and Silfra Lagoon.
After the diving, please drive back to Reykjavík Old Harbour for the whale watching tour starting at 14:00.
