Extreme scuba diving -Dead Sea underwater scenery.wmv
Diving in the Dead Sea is one of the most unusual and unique scuba diving experiences in the world. Most divers don’t imagine it is even possible at all. The amazing underwater scenery with its magnificent salt consolidation is breathtaking. In a clear day you can expect to see the salt crystals shining like million diamonds. The best description is probably the reaction of one of our divers right after his dive: “It is all covered white. It’s like diving in an ocean of ice, but the temperature and the weight you are carrying on you, remind you you are not”

You don’t have to …
You don’t have to adjust your computer at all.
The computer ‘fills’ the water presure and calculates your bottom time accordingly.
The thing is that when you are actually in -10 m bellow water surface your computer ‘fill’ like you are in -13 m.
Another interesting fact for Dead Sea Divers is that the water surface is -420 M bellow sea level so it is equivalent to a -3 M of water (you are in your deco stop on surface)
Have you thought about it?
Actually it is not so simple…..Join us and se

Hi Mark,
The water …
Hi Mark,
The water contain several minerals like sodium chloride (NaCl) at the most, and calcium chloride, potassium chloride, magnesium chloride and others.
We dove to -44 M which is equivalent to -56 in the ocean. I don’t now about anyone that dive deeper and I can suggest nobody really did.
The pressure is higher with 25-30% then in the ocean ( 1.28 Kg per Liter apprx. comparison to the 1.03 Kg per Liter in the ocean)
Hope this help
question: given the …
question: given the amount of salt and other minerals in the water, does that affect how far down you can dive? Is the pressure the same? How far down has anyone dived?
it just looks like …

Hi lol,
The amount of the lead we use depends on the water temperature, the diver dimension and if we use a diving suit or not. Usually, without diving suit we use 40-50 Kg.
