Ice Diving

Scuba diving beneath frozen lake or sea ice, entering an extraordinary silent world of blue light filtered through the ice ceiling, with remarkable underwater visibility and marine life adapted to extreme cold. Svalbard offers some of the world's most rewarding ice diving, with kelp forests, sea anemones, and the chance of encountering ringed seals beneath the ice. Participants must be qualified divers with cold-water experience, and always dive with a tether line and surface safety team.
