Exploring Lighthouse Reef Belize - 2018 Blue Hole Expedition with Aquatica Submarines

Back in early December 2018, a historical expedition was lead to the bottom of the Great Blue Hole in Belize.  Aquatica Submarines in collaboration with the Roatan Institute of Deep Sea Exploration (RIDE), Fabien Cousteau and Richard Branson took multiple submersibles and dove to the bottom of the 407ft/124m site.

After this initial expedition, 30 plus more dives took place in order to record data and footage for scientific research.
