For our dive and photography expeditions to Antarctica we have chartered ice-strengthened polar vessels well suited to our purpose. Our mission is the exploration of Antarctica’s underwater environment, a truly unique experience for the advanced diver. You will see amazing ice formations and marine life seemingly from another planet, such as the Giant Isopods and salps. Seals race fearlessly by, graceful in a way not possible above the surface. Sunlight from above creates a stunning, ever-changing spectrum of color among the diverse benthos. Take your time to explore an environment few diver have ever experienced: the kelp walls, sea snails, crabs, sea butterflies, Shrubby horsetails, jellyfish, squid, Sea hedgehogs, starfish, krill and various Antarctic fish.
The waters of the Southern Ocean also support an economically important world fishery of fin fish, squid and krill, and the waters of the Southern Ocean affect all other world oceans. The beautiful surroundings of the Antarctic Peninsula is a paradise for all, divers, adventurers, naturalists and photographers with its amazing array of colours and moods and diverse wildlife.

Join us on this unique Dive, Exploration and Photography Expedition designed exclusively for Waterproof Expeditions. Featuring the elusive leopard seal (Hydrurga Leptonyx) you will dive, snorkel, photograph and film these fascinating creatures during a private voyage onboard a luxury ice strengthened expedition yacht for only 12 guest.
