No diving experience is needed to go for shark cage diving, as the cage is attached to the boat at all times. You only hold your breath whilst holding on to a rail, and submerge yourself for a few seconds at a time. No air devices are used – great white sharks don’t like the noise or sight of bubbles, and we want them to come as close to the cage as possible for your viewing pleasure.

Before you get into the cage you put your dive gear on – wetsuit with hoodie, booties, mask. Not all boats supply weight belts so make sure that you request this prior to your trip should you wish to use it.
