The Wigry expedition is a unique and pioneering project, which covers the beautiful Wigry National Park. During the series of dives, spread over several months, we have explored successive water reservoirs, which are usually under strict protection, and thus still remain unknown and conceal many secrets.

The organisers themselves set themselves the following objectives:

– photographic and film documentation of fauna and flora of selected lakes (above and under water);
– making of a documentary film about diving in the lakes of Wigry National Park;
– realisation of a cycle of nature-educational films (also for promotional purposes);
– Organisation of a photo exhibition of the project documenting the fauna and flora of the waters of the Wigierski National Park;
– publication of a photo album (if sponsors can be obtained);
– Promoting the idea of safe diving as a sport accessible to all, including children;
– Promotion of the Wigry National Park and the whole Suwalszczyzna region;

The water bodies included in the project include lakes which are strict protection areas: Białe Wigierskie, Pietronajć, Królówki, Długie Wigierskie and Suchar III or IV, as well as more accessible water bodies such as Lake Gałęziste, Lake Krusznik, Lake Klonek and Lake Czarne. Among rivers, the Czarna Hańcza, Kamionka and Wiatrołuża will be put under the magnifying glass of the Wigry expedition – all of them in fragments or in whole constituting the strict protection area!
