Ice diving
Scuba diving in near-freezing water, in a drysuit — sometimes beneath ice.
Ice diving means diving in near-freezing water in a drysuit, sometimes beneath a frozen surface on a line to the hole. It needs certification and drysuit experience, and rewards you with extraordinary visibility and silence.
