It was great! I’m glad I did it … once. It is a workout. You wear a body suit, followed by a dry suit, a head covering in which they zip tie your neck so there isn’t water seepage. Gloves, goggles, snorkel and fins. It is a lot of weight and effort to swim and a bit claustrophobic. Cool experience that I don’t ever need to repeat in the future.

Great snorkeling. Water visibility is amazing and is truly an unforgettable experience to see the two plates (Eurasian and American).

Unser Veranstalter war super nett, wir wurden gut eingewiesen. Es war für uns wirklich ein einzigartiges Erlebnis. Stern Abzug wegen sehr langer Wartezeit in der Kälte. Sonst top!
