    A free diver exercises dynamic apnoea below an iced platform, in the chilly salt water of the White Sea, at minus 2 degrees Celsius. Must be extremely prepared, brave and self-controlled to free-dive, holding the breath, in ambient without a fast and clear access to the surface.
Reaching the underwater world, is an adventure itself since a thick layer of ice bars the passages every night, due to very low temperatures, and every day one must cut ice holes (called mainas by locals) into the ice platform. Salted water needs very low temperature to freeze. Below the ice platform, the upper layer is a melt of fresh and salt water, allowing a surprising amount of life to thrive. 

Location: White Sea, northern Russia.

This is the first time in the world that such a structure has been submerged. The reef is located off Cap d'Agde, 3 km from the coast, at a depth of 20 m. The module weighs 105 tonnes, measures 6.50 m high, 8 m long and 6 m wide, and offers 430 m3 of diving volume. Immersion will take place in July 2022, as part of the Recif'lab program run by the Aire Marine Protégée de la côte agathoise. An artificial reef to relieve the pressure of scuba diving on natural sites.
