Dry suit certificate
Got my dry suit certificate there, excellent service and our instructor James was the best. We started at the pool where he went throughly over the basics and then we went to kleifarvatn where he honed our skills. Will be going with them to silfra tomorrow and can't wait, Couldn't recommend this diving center more.

Er eitthvað líf í Silfru?
-
Það er líf í Silfru en þó er það mest megnis plöntur eða hryggleysingjar sem eru svo litlir að þeir sjást ekki. Silfra er heimili fyrir grunnvatnsmarflóa sem hafa hlotið sérstakt heiti Crymostygius Thingvallensis og finnast aðeins í Þingvallavatni. Það eru margir fiskar í Þingvallavatni en þó kíkja þeir aðeins í Silfru í kringum ágúst og september þegar mökunartímabilið á sér stað. Í Silfru eru smáar bleikjur sem eru um nokkri sentímetrar langar en geta orðið allt að 10 sentímetra langar. Þær lifa mjög djúpt í myrkrinu en stundum eru kafarar og snorklarar heppnir að sjá glitta í þær.

-
Hversu langar eru kafanirnar í Silfru?
-
Hver köfun tekur u.þ.b. 30-45 mínútur, en það fer allt eftir nýtingu á lofti, reynslu og getu hvers og eins.
-
-
Ég er með þurrbúningaskírteini en er ekki með 10 þurrbúninga kafanir, get ég samt komið?
-
Til að kafa í Silfru þarftu að hafa annað hvort þurrbúningaskírteini eða 10 skráðar þurrbúninga kafanir á síðustu tveimur árum. Þú þarft ekki bæði, annað hvort er nóg.
