Antarctic diving expedition
This dedicated Antarctic expedition offers above and below the water insights into the white continent, which few have been privileged to experience. A true adventure for divers and non-divers alike.
Divers on this voyage will enjoy guidance from an onboard team of diving professionals who are pioneers in polar diving, 2009 leaders included:
- Göran Ehlme, BBC Wildlife Photographer of the Year 2006 and polar cameraman for the Blue Planet.
- Matthieu Meur, the co-author for the Essential Digital Guide to Underwater Photography and the Advanced Guide to Digital Underwater Photography.
- Jamie Watts - former British Antarctic Survey Marine Scientist. Published author, most recently in BBC Wildlife Magazine and Ocean Geographic magazine.
- Rather than dive from a hole in the ice, we dive off the edges of ice flows and around spectacular icebergs where we hope to observe penguins from beneath the surface as they plunge en masse into the sea.
