But the Nymph allows boaters to get low, flying underneath the water to depths of 30 meters (98 feet). Helmed by a trained pilot, it soars at a speed of 6 knots (7 mph).
Dives typically last from one to two hours and passengers wear normal scuba breathing gear.

The dives, which last for 1-2 hours at time, start at $2,500 per day. Click here for more details.
