Azionemare is a non-profit organization. Deep-sea explorations for research and scientific dissemination in Underwater Archaeology, Marine Biology and Geology.
Sustainability is the key word today. Azionemare does its part: the Daedalus catamaran uses wind as its main propulsion and solar panels to power the on-board systems and recharge the ROVs. The desalinator provides drinking water, recycling is the basic rule.
