USEA -  The Underwater Soft Encounter Alliance was set up by Pierre Robert de LaTour as the ultimate diving experience. Like many key conservationists, it was an encounter with a wild animal that changed his way of thinking. A wild killer whale was trapped in fishing nets and would have died a slow death if it was not for the courage of Pierre. Boats had tried to approach, but the animal kept diving so Pierre approached the Orca, with a technique that would become the foundation of USEA diving techniques. The animal remained calm and allowed him to cut free the net….

I am an ambassador, so if you have any questions or queries relating to Orca, or diving with these beautiful marine mammals, please do get in touch.
