EXPERIENCE THE OCEAN LIKE NEVER BEFORE
The Hydrous Virtual Dive Team, led by our CEO & Co-Founder Erika Woolsey, celebrated World Oceans Week on June 7th with a first-of-its-kind shared, synchronized immersive reality experience. We dove under the waters of Palau, came face-to-face with incredible marine animals, and shared the wonder of the underwater world with people across the globe in real-time.
Connect with the ocean no matter where you are.
