Private Submersible Dive Beneath the Ice

Descend up to 300 meters in a submersible to see the Southern Ocean's alien depths — bioluminescence, ice keels, and creatures no snorkeler ever sees.

What to expect

Guests board a small acrylic-domed submersible from a launch platform, descending slowly as the pilot narrates the changing light and life. Depths reveal sea stars, giant isopods, and the glowing blue undersides of icebergs. Dives last around 45-60 minutes and are limited to two or three guests at a time.
