    One of the most amazing experiences of my life!!! The sharks are literally rubbing shoulders with you during the time under water!! The Instructors make you feel comfortable and safe. the whole program was run very professionally from start to finish and the entire day there was awesome. To have a Grey Nurse shark 10cm away from you just cruising along, staring right back at you will be an experience i will Never Forget!!!!

    It was an incredible experience and any certified diver should do it. I have dived all around the world, and even done a shark dive in open water. But, nothing compares to the close proximity of this. My girlfriend and I had an amazing experience together!
