I finally got around to editing the video from the Silfra dive in Iceland. It only took 8 months 🤪

You're diving the no mans land between the European and North American plates at Thingvellir National Park in Iceland. The water clarity is transparent. It's insanely blue - I actually reduced the amount of blue in the video to make it look a little less fake, but it barely helps! There's not much alive down there - some algae on the rocks, and I saw a few small fish, but it's really just about the geology and the experience.
Much of the dive is in a narrow channel. A couple of spots get wider and very shallow. Apologies for the camera work there - it's hard to hold it straight when you're crawling over the rocks with your tank sticking out!
The water is cold - 2-3C, and that doesn't improve if you dive it in summer since it's melted snow. I wore my heated undergarment, which I was extremely glad about. I didn't notice the cold during the dive itself, though I could feel my lips going a little numb around the reg. When I got out and had to change in the driving wind and lightly falling snow, that was frigid! That part at least might be a little better in summer 🤪
