Shipwreck Exploration Expeditions

OceanGate Titanic Expeditions are Set to Start in Summer 2021

— December 20, 2020 — World
Adventurers who are curious to take a trip to the final resting place of the Titanic will be intrigued to hear of the news of the OceanGate Titanic expedition that will offer a one-of-a-kind experience. The expedition from the privately-owned exploration company will see up to nine civilians joining the crew per trip as they voyage more than 12,800 feet below the surface of the water to visit the shipwreck. The opportunity is likely to be of distinct interest to avid explorers who are keen to take a look at the shipwreck before it is completely lost given its accelerated deterioration in recent years.

The OceanGate Titanic expeditions are expected to begin starting in summer 2021 and will see 18 dives planned.
