SOF Dive

The waters at Fantasy Lake, North Carolina, once again became the proving grounds for innovation during SOF Dive 2025, a premier event bringing together the world’s most elite end users, manufacturers, and technology partners in the maritime and combat diving community.

What began as a specialized showcase has evolved into a cornerstone event where capability meets environment. From underwater navigation and rebreather systems to dry suits, flotation aids, and carrier integration, every piece of equipment on display was tested where it matters most, below the surface.

 This year’s SOF Dive 2024 was an immersive showcase where manufacturers and operators from the Special Operations Forces (SOF) community came together, revealing the latest advancements in tactical, dive, and operational gear. Set against a backdrop of Fantasy Lake in Raleigh, NC, the event emphasized collaboration, innovation, and hands-on demonstrations, providing attendees with a unique opportunity to see cutting-edge products in action. This year’s event hosted combat divers from throughout the US, along with The Netherlands, Germany, France, Lithuania, and more.
