About me
Marcel Korkus
Welcome to my underwater world!
This website is dedicated to my greatest passion – diving. I started my adventure with the underwater world in 2003. Since then, rapid development and subsequent training allowed me to become a technical diver, cave diver and diving instructor, while also doing more than 3 thousand dives. Starting from diving in cold Polish waters to diving in Asia, North America, South America, Africa and Australia. These were dives during which I had the opportunity to admire and explore places not always available to others. Wrecks, reefs, flooded drifts and mines, caves, or wildlife fauna when swimming among sharks. Many years of experience in working with various services and as an expert witness in the field of diving and underwater search allow me to approach such an alien environment as water with humility. Many years of diving, working on saturation diving vessels and belonging to diving federations such as IANTD, TDI, CMAS and PADI have enabled me to develop the best procedures and setups for me. In 2016, I discovered the highest lake on Earth and twice became a world record holder in high altitude diving (Cazadero Diving Expedition 2016 and Ojos Diving Expedition 2019). The opportunity to be a technical and rebreather diver gives me the chance to reach places that are inaccessible to recreational divers, and to show non-divers the beauty of the underwater world. Therefore, I intend to make my next dives exclusively in closed circuits, which opens up new possibilities for me to explore more than 70% of our Planet.
