Events for July 12, 2025 - November 11

Join Blue Green Expeditions for an exciting shore based expedition to Bergen, Norway. This can also be an add on trip prior to the Spitsbergen expedition! The beautiful and historic city of Bergen is often called "The gateway to the fjords". The rugged and beautiful archipelago to the west of the city offers great opportunities for divers. Here the famous Norwegian fjords meet the North Sea and the Atlantic Ocean, creating a varied underwater world with steep drop offs and canyons, amazing kelp forests, sandy coves and exiting reefs teeming with life. Bergen's history as Norway's most important port city has also resulted in a number of interesting ship wrecks in and around its shipping lanes. Some of the wrecks we can dive are the August Bolten, a German freight ship form WW2. Resting on shelves and caught in cracks are several pieces of war equipment including cannons, trailers, motorbikes and tank engines. Other wrecks include the Helene Jensen, the R56, the Siggen and the Oldenburg. The Oldenburg was built in 1914 and bombed and sunk during WW2. This beautiful steamship is very well preserved and a highlight of our trip. If that isn’t enough, we will be staying at the Panorama Hotel which offers unlimited shore diving at its house reef.

Jacques Cousteau and John Steinbeck saw the magic that the Sea of Cortez has to offer. Jacques Cousteau called the Sea of Cortez “the worlds aquarium.” John Steinbeck wrote "The Log of the Sea of Cortez" a journey through a remote and beautiful corner of the world, a diary filled with the daily excitements and triumphs of skillful and energetic men. It is also an invitation to see the world anew from a fresh vantage point and perhaps with a broader and more understanding spirit. Come explore the Sea of Cortez, home to an amazing array of wild life above and below the water line, with Blue Green Expeditions aboard the Nautilus Gallant Lady!!

Join Blue Green Expeditions for an exciting land excursion on the Galapagos Islands right after we dive them!! The Aqua has a special permit to do both diving and land excursions in Galapagos. Those who book the optional land tour with us will be able to stay on the boat following the diving portion and continue the land excursions for another 4 nights/5 days. This makes the logistics super easy and ensures your land tours will be with a nice small group. The Galapagos Islands are one of the most unique islands in the world and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The unique volcanic islands host a plethora of wildlife and fauna and were the inspiration for Charles Darwin’s Theory of Evolution. The animals on the Galapagos Islands are incredibly tame thanks to a lack of natural predators. You can expect to get up close and personal to many different species of animals and birds such as giant tortoises, sea lions, blue footed boobies, marine iguanas and many others. We hope you will join us on this exciting adventure!
