DIVING ALASKA IS EXTREME. IT IS INTENSE IN ALL ASPECTS.
The summer waters can “warm” up to the low 50’s but can have poor visibility. The winters can have crystal clear waters, but average below 40 degrees in the water and below zero air temps are common. The storms in the Gulf can produce up to massive waves and weather anywhere in the state can change in an instant. The cold water sucks the warmth out of your suit and makes equalization difficult, making a 100ft dive feel like 200ft.
But this is why we love diving here.
The challenge and unknown draws us to the icy waters. Every dive is different, and every dive makes us want more. We experience and see things below the waves that very few get to see.
