About the activity

If you are a certified diver, embark on a wonderful and unique adventure in the incredible Arctic waters of the Lofoten Archipelago on this dry suit scuba diving introduction from Ballstad! Located in northern Norway, the picturesque Lofoten Archipelago sits within the Arctic Circle and is characterised by its numerous islands, majestic fjords, and diverse species of wildlife. Situated on the shores of the Norwegian Sea, Ballstad is one of the largest fishing villages in Lofoten, and the perfect place to explore its crystal-clear, beautiful Arctic waters.

On the day of your dry suit diving introduction in the Lofoten Archipelago, you'll need to arrive at the meeting point in the Lofoten diving headquarters, at least 5 minutes before the activity is set to start. There, you'll meet your expert instructor, who will distribute the diving equipment, including the dry suit, a warm undergarment, a hood, fins, and mask. After giving you some time to grear up, your instructor will give you a thorough safety briefing and teach you the specifics of dry suit dving.

Once you're ready, you'll hop on a RIB boat (rigid inflatable boat) and head on a picturesque ride toward the chosen dive site for the day. Next, it's time to dive! The Arctic waters of the Lofoten Archipelago are crystal-clear, and during winter they offer an incredible 40 metres of underwater visibility. You'll be able to observe cod, startfish, sea urchins, and a vibrant kelp forest, as well as any other wildlife that passes by the dive site. An unmissable experience if you are a certified diver. The dry suit will keep you warm in the 2 to 5 degree Celsius waters, and your instructor will be there to keep you safe at every step.

Don't forget to bring wool or thermal undergarments, as well as extra warm clothing and socks in case you get wet under the dry suit. You should also bring a towel, contact lenses if you wear glasses, and anything else you may need (medication, snacks, etc.) to spend an amazing 3 to 4 hours on this dry suit scuba diving introduction from Ballstad.

Take your chance to explore some of the most stunning waters in Norway and experience a new way to dive, even in the freezing winter. Book your dry suit scuba diving introduction in the Lofoten Archipelago from Ballstad today!
