5 day highlights of Iceland dive tour

8 dive sites in 5 days - Selfdrive tour



Set up your own Iceland diving adventure

8 dives in 5 days

We here at DIVE.IS offer a variety of diving tours in Iceland. If you would like to try more dive sites then the bucket list dive, Silfra, then we have got you covered. We have set up self-drive multi-day diving tour itineraries to make it easier for you to book your Icelandic diving adventure.

This is our best suggestion for a 5 day tour in South and North Iceland.

The dates of your dives do not have to be back to back (if you want to relax in between dive days) and you can choose which dive to start first depending on your preferences and own plans in Iceland. You choose your own dates in the booking process so it is all up to you!

We suggest you book your accommodation in Reykjavik and Akureyri and drive to the dive site each day. That way you can sightsee and choose your activities as you like. You can, of course, use our pick up service where that applies.

In addition to suggesting dives, we have hand picked activities in the area you will be in each day which we think would add to your perfect diving adventure in Iceland.

Check out more information about the dive sites in the day tabs below.
