Witold Hoffmann

Diving since he was 18 (2009). Fascination with the underwater world led the chemist-scientist towards flooded mines in Poland, which resulted in a ‘holiday break’ on a diving internship in the mecca of cave divers - Cala Gonone in Sardinia. The break extended a bit, to 4 years of full-time work as a guide and cave instructor. His parallel activity as a speleologist in Tatra added a package of knowledge and skills allowing him to explore caves in their entirety - regardless of whether it is a flooded siphon or a deep alpine cave in the mountains. Since 2017, the main axis of his caving activities has been the exploration of Sistema Cheve (Sierra Juarez, Oaxaca, Mexico) - potentially the deepest cave in the world, with hydrologically confirmed potential of a ~2600m  depth.
