The epic journey starts with a week of test dives in Chuuk Lagoon, the site of one of the most dramatic raids of World War II, before heading out to the remote Pacific islands. As their ship, the Big Blue Explorer, hits open ocean, the 2,000-mile journey of discovery is truly underway.

Kate Humble's scuba team encounter spectacular underwater wildlife while the extreme deep divers and scientists dive as deep as humans can without a submersible and continue to find fish that have never been seen before. In this environment, even the most experienced member of the deep team is not immune to unexpected equipment failure.
