Dry suits will keep you warm. It might get a little bit colder during winter time after you get out of the water. The air temperature in winter is usually colder than the water.

Glacier water is filtered via underground lava on its journey to Silfra after melting glacier ice. We can eventually explore the fascinating, mystical life between the tectonic plates because the pores from the lava clean the water in the end.
