Underwater in VR - Northern Lights Festival

NZ-VR is a collaboration between BLAKE and New Zealand Geographic, using virtual reality to allows people to experience the rich biodiversity that exists below the surface of the ocean, as well as the damage that has been done to the ecosystem. The NZ-VR programme has been able to reach 35,000 students across the country, where students experience a number of underwater experiences through 360˚ videos that compare and contrast pristine marine environments and damaged ones.

Come explore for yourself what it is like diving at the Kermadecs Islands, the Three Kings, the Poor Knights, White Island and around the Hauraki Gulf.
