As the premier manufacturer of immersive, ocean-based experiences, U Boat Worx is now also positioning itself as a strategic operating partner.
“Guests today are looking for extraordinary experiences — something they can’t find anywhere else,” said, Roy Heijdra, Marketing Manager. “A submarine dive is the kind of bucket-list adventure that sets your destination apart. It creates buzz, drives word-of-mouth, and gives operators powerful content for their own marketing.”
