Great White Shark Cage Dive Adventure
- Duration
- 3 Days
- Prices From:
- US$ 679
A wonderful and exciting opportunity to be safely up close and personal with the Great White Shark either in a cage or in an underwater viewing sub. It is guaranteed you will not be a victim of the movie, Jaws!
Your “Swim with Great White Sharks” starts with accommodation for 2 nights at Port Lincoln on the Eyre Peninsula located in South Australia. The Eyre Peninsula is an important ground for great white sharks and also for whales and sea lions (the scariest scenes of Jaws were shot here).
A unique opportunity to experience the legendary Great White Shark in their natural habitat. Start with a cruise through the Thorny Passage with possible sightings of dolphins and local sea birds. Then head to the Neptune Islands, home of the Great White Shark. Here you can opt to jump into a cage and swim with them or you can enter an Underwater Viewing Sub. In either case, you will only be less than 1.25 metres/4 feet below the surface and can come up anytime.
