Follow us down under the water in Koster National Park. A deep chute brings in salty oxygen-rich water from the North Atlantic and creates the conditions for a unique marine environment. Six experienced underwater photographers join forces and film and photograph the unique underwater world. You visit the mythical Persgrunden and several places around Koster. Several of the divers have dived here before, but that was a long time ago. What is different then from now? The bottom vegetation looks alive and healthy but where are the fish?
