Underwater Lighting
Submersible lighting for your Dutch underwater production.
Underwater lighting requires specialized waterproof fixtures to illuminate subjects beneath the surface. The Netherlands' North Sea coast at Scheveningen, Zandvoort, and Bergen aan Zee, plus the UNESCO Wadden Sea around Texel, present low-visibility, sediment-rich conditions where powerful daylight-balanced fixtures and disciplined dive operations are essential.
We supply professional submersible lighting systems and qualified dive crews across Amsterdam, Rotterdam, The Hague, Utrecht, and Eindhoven. Our team coordinates dive-rated LED and HMI fixtures, battery systems, and experienced underwater gaffers, with Coastguard and Natura 2000 permit support for the Wadden Sea.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What underwater lighting options do you offer?
We offer LED and HMI submersible lights rated for various depths. LED units provide efficient illumination for tank work in Amsterdam and Rotterdam studios; HMI delivers powerful daylight-balanced output to push through cool, sediment-rich North Sea and Wadden water.
How deep can you light underwater?
Our equipment is rated for various depths—many units to 100m or more. Depth requirements depend on the specific production needs, and we select appropriate equipment accordingly.
Do you provide dive-qualified lighting technicians?
Yes, our underwater lighting technicians are qualified divers experienced in cold North Sea and Wadden Sea conditions. They can operate lights underwater while maintaining proper dive protocols.
What about color temperature underwater?
Water absorbs red light quickly with depth. We use daylight-balanced lights and can add filters to compensate. Color correction is easier with proper lighting than trying to fix in post.
Can you light large underwater areas?
Yes, we can deploy multiple units for large-scale underwater lighting setups. This requires careful planning for power, positioning, and safety but enables dramatic underwater scenes.
What Dutch waters do you work in?
We work the North Sea coast at Scheveningen, Zandvoort, and Bergen aan Zee, the UNESCO Wadden Sea around Texel, plus Amsterdam canals and inland lakes. We also operate in pool stages and tanks at Amsterdam and Rotterdam studios for controlled scenes.
