€1850 OFF- Plancius Antarctica DIVING: Weddell Sea - March 2019
Antarctica and the Sub-Antarctic Islands are some of the last truly unspoilt regions of the world. Join the M/V Plancius for a trip of lifetime aboard an Antarctica cruise. Originally an oceanographic research vessel built in 1976 for the Royal Dutch Navy, she was completely refurbished in 2009 to accommodate 116 passengers for Polar adventure cruises.
Departure: 11th March 2019
Duration: 11 nights
Safari: Antarctica diving: Weddel Sea - Antarctic Discover
Marine Life: During our Antarctic dive expedition you may observe penguins from under the surface as well as sea lions and perhaps even leopard seals. The Falkland Islands are rich with krill (which is consumed by many species) and therefore interesting for finding marine wildlife.
Diving: The dive sites will vary from shallow ice diving, diving along a wall, from a beach or from the zodiac. The maximum depth is around 20 meters / 60 feet. The combination of sunlight and the often extraordinary formations of ice causes an overwhelming, ever-changing spectre of colours, with a fantastic variety of shades and brilliance. While snorkelling or diving along the ice-floes, you will be amazed and never forget these deep blue colours.
Dive trips are limited to a maximum of 24 divers and spaces fill up fast.
Experience: Advanced Open Water - 30 minimum logged dives required. Divers must be experienced with cold water and dry suit diving.
