Every newly discovered and explored shipwreck brings with it a vast array of personal and archaeological history.

Sea Hunters journey to demonstrate a better undertanding of mankind's endeavours in the world's oceans through the careful examination of each site and the history surrounding it using the latest underwater technology from submarines, 3-D imaging sonar and the latest mixed-gas dive equipment.

This documentary series deals with the search, documentation and historic backgrounds of shipwrecks found in the oceans of the world, as well as the programs in place to protect and preserve these relics of our maritime past.
