FULL DAY GREAT WHITE SHARK CAGE DIVING

 
A fin rises from the water and a shudder goes down your spine. The great white shark has been terrifyingly etched into popular culture as a killer and is considered the most fearsome of marine predators. However, these fascinating creatures are often misunderstood and do not actively seek out human prey. As their numbers decrease it is becoming a privilege to be able to have a first-hand encounter with the Great White. 
On this tour you can get face to ragged face with this dreaded apex predator. You don’t need dive certification as the cage that separates you from the great white rests only a few meters below the surface of the water. Get ready for the marine encounter of a life time.
