The unique environment attracts divers seeking to assess their skills in harsh conditions. Over the years, the festival has drawn certified scuba divers from Canada, Mexico, Florida, Arkansas, Texas, Illinois, and California.
As Richard Thomas, Owner of International Scuba in Dallas, Texas, explained, “The Ice Hole Festival aims to bring together scuba divers eager to expand their skill set and foster collaborative relationships with Scuba Dive centers throughout North America.”
The festival has become a platform for scuba shops to sponsor Ice Diving Instructors, establishing themselves as stakeholders with yearly benefits.
An added benefit is the collaboration between Scuba Dive shops on various events throughout the year. Ocean Impact from Arkansas hosts a spearfishing tournament, and other shops eagerly support such events, creating a larger following for each participating shop.

They will provide special gifts to all divers. We are happy to announce our new shop and sponsor Y-KIKI from the great state of Missouri.
