Baramed cold water diving

‘Cold water diving’ is a rather elastic term. For some divers, ‘cold water’ means ice diving or subantarctic diving. Other divers use it to refer to temperate water environments (water with a temperature between 10 and 24 degrees Celsius).

In the seminar, we focus in particular on temperatures below 10 C. The focus is on prevention, physiology, medicine and diving equipment.
