Udforsk Armenien
Selv om Armenien er en indlandsstat, byder landet på overraskende givende ferskvandsdykning i et dramatisk bjerglandskab. Sevan-søen, en af verdens største søer i stor højde på næsten 1.900 meter over havets overflade, er landets førende dykkersted. Der gælder procedurer for Altitude Diving, hvilket tilføjer en teknisk dimension til rekreative dyk. Om sommeren kan sigtbarheden nå 10-15 meter, mens vandtemperaturen har en rækkevidde fra 4 °C om vinteren til omkring 20 °C sidst på sæsonen.
Dykkere udforsker klippefremspring, undersøiske skove, vulkanske formationer og endda oversvømmede strukturer langs kysten. Armenien har også stenbrud og reservoirer, der er velegnede til træning, teknisk øvelse og endda isdykning om vinteren. Rolige forhold, færre menneskemængder og den unikke oplevelse af at dykke i Kaukasus-bjergene gør Armenien til en uventet og spændende destination for eventyrlystne dykkere.
