Next April 2012 will mark 100 years since the sinking of the famous ocean liner Titanic, after it struck an iceberg in the North Atlantic.
To mark the milestone, travel company, Tematis, is offering 40 participants the opportunity to board a special submarine, two at time, and dive 3,800 meters (12,500 feet) for an up close and personal view of the wreck.
The 8 to 10-hour diving period allows underwater tourist a chance to admire the Titanic from every angle. From the bow of the boat, one can even see the grand staircase.
In order to sign up for the trip, participants must successfully undergo a medical check-up, and are warned that they shouldn’t consider the dive if they suffer from claustrophobia.
One final detail – the 13-day trip from St John’s, Newfoundland, costs $60,000.
