Description

Proposed Itinerary (subject to change based on weather and tides) NOTE: Due to travel times, this is a full day activity.
Meeting time is an hour before launch time so you can relax, have some breakfast and listen to the safety and boat trip briefing.
The trip from the dock to the shark site is only about ten minutes so there is no long and tedious boat ride. The bay is also protected so the sea conditions are normally very calm and comfortable. The crew will provide a briefing concerning the cage diving on the boat.
It can take several minutes or several hours for the first shark to appear and while we enjoy a high success rate, you need to understand that nothing is guaranteed.
Once we have sharks at the boat, the cage will go into the water and the diving will begin. Topside viewing is exciting for the non-diver and as the shark works very close to the surface you will have plenty of opportunity to take some action shots.
A trip generally lasts for +- three to four hours and we offer a light lunch, snacks and drinks on the boat and there is plenty of opportunity to chat to the staff and ask questions.
