UNDER THE POLE
PRESENTATION
WHO ARE WE ?
Driven by a pioneering spirit, the UTP undersea expeditions aim to explore the unknown through a bold approach and continuing innovation. In ten years, the Under The Pole team has succeeded in pushing the limits of polar diving and acquired worldwide recognition. Although past expeditions focused on the Arctic, UTP II will be worldwide. “Innovative and bold expeditions are educational and scientific, telling the story in images, for today and tomorrow, of a world adrift.”
