Meet Faith Ortins, Polar Expedition Leader, ocean advocate, and one of the pioneers who helped make cold-water diving more accessible to recreational divers around the world.
From redesigning the first drysuits created specifically for women to leading expeditions across the Arctic, Antarctica, and every ocean on Earth, Faith has spent a lifetime proving that exploration and conservation go hand in hand.
At Diving Talks 2026, she’ll share how expeditions to some of the planet’s most remote environments are bringing together scientists, divers, artists, and storytellers to deepen our understanding of the ocean—and why every diver has a role to play in its future.
🎥 Watch Faith’s introduction and tell us: Which polar destination is on your dream diving or expedition list?
