Peter Venoutsos: "Exploring Antarctica"
The frozen continent is the most remote place on earth and is virtually an uninhabited ice-covered landmass. Come with us as we set sail for the Antarctic Peninsula. The peninsula’s isolated terrain shelters a wide range of rich wildlife and iceberg-flanked passageways. From Penguins to Whales and shipwrecks the dives we had were some of the most unforgettable I have ever experienced.
Peter Venoutsos has been a certified diver since 1976 and a commercial diver since 1983. His experience includes working with private underwater engineering firms, the Federal Government and the US Navy. His interests include underwater photography, shipwrecks & cave diving, with the goal of promoting diving around the world.
Please join us for the MetroWest Dive Club's General Meeting for the presentation.

Diving in New England
What is it like to dive New England?
The video below tries to convey a sense of what diving in New England is like; cold water, low vis, and great wildlife. It was produced by William Skelly and the underwater photos in it were taken over the course of five years by Steve Bigelow, Steven Jaques, Robert Landy, and Bobby Joe. (Video subtitles are available.)
