with Amos Nachoum – Photography The ever-present schooling hammerhead sharks patrolling the reefs of Cocos Island and the unique technical diving support onboard the Undersea Hunter are rare in the world of recreation sport and therefore it is - the classic combination. This combination supports the advantages of diving with a rebreather, get closer than normal to the wildlife and stay submerged longer underwater, which leads to extraordinary photo opportunities.
Cocos, legendary deserted island of Robinson Crusoe, 240
miles off Costa Rica, is world-renowned for the electrifying
beauty of rainforest, waterfalls cascading into the ocean and of
its blue water diving. Diving along these island walls,
sea mounts and pinnacles offer an opportunity to dive with the
never-ending schooling hammerhead sharks, the occasional whale
shark, hundreds of white-tip sharks and bait balls.
Peter will conduct several seminars onboard about advanced Rebreather diving and the latest safety issues. On a daily basis, Peter will actively review our maintenance and pre dive procedures to ensure your enjoyment and productive photography effort. Leading the photography activity on the
expedition I will conduct several presentations about BigAnimals
photography and about Blue Water photography. I will provide
photography coaching one on one and will screen presentations of
my well-known camera work from around the world. To accommodate this one-of-a-kind diving
event I chartered half of the “Undersea Hunter” and the
exclusive use of one of its two skiffs. You will be one of the
seven guest
Rebreather divers are awarded with 90
minutes bottom time on each dive and I secured for us three
dives per day plus handful of night dives too. The Undersea
Hunter is fully equipped to support the rebreather divers
technical and exotic supply for Oxygen and Scrubber. The Undersea Hunter group also provides a unique diving experience – onboard a three-person submarine, which takes people and provides a rare undersea exploration to 300 feet, 700 and 1,000 feet. The Undersea and Sea Hunters vessels and now with Argos have the world’s best record for live-aboard dive boats and have an outstanding reputation for providing high quality dive services. This promises to be a most dynamic
expedition and rewarding experience for the participating divers
- due to the locations, Hammerhead schooling season, extended
bottom time and the availability of the submarine.
This expedition is open to all Rebreather
users, fully close and semi close alike, are welcome. ![]()
