Incredible Photos from Cressi's Galapagos Dive Expedition

To celebrate its 70th anniversary, Cressi sponsored an expedition in the Galapagos Islands with freediving and underwater photography specialists. This trip – a collaborative effort by Cressi, GoPro, DAN, PADI, and the Charles Darwin Foundation – was the first collaboration of freedivers and scuba divers in the Galapagos with a conservation context. Team members are putting together a documentary from the trip that will promote conservation.

Of course, the trip resulted in some awesome photos. Check out the gallery below to see what the dive experience was like in the Galapagos Islands.
