Shark dive at SEA LIFE Sydney Aquarium

Diving with sharks is a bucket list item and there is no better place to tick this adrenaline-inducing experience off than with the experience team at SEA LIFE Sydney Aquarium. Not only will you get up close and personal with their colony of Grey Nurse sharks, you’ll also be sharing the tank with huge smooth rays the size of a queen bed and an amazing array of fish. You might even find Nemo!

Can you imagine the look on your loved one’s face if they opened up a RedBalloon envelope at Christmas to find out they’d be diving with sharks? Talk about a Christmas gift with wow factor. If the men in your family (dad, brothers, uncles) are hard to buy for this could be a great Christmas gift idea for them. It is perfect to do as a group of friends, or for the ultimate date!

You don’t have to worry if you or the person you are gifting this experience to has no prior experience. You simply need to have a reasonable degree of swimming ability. All the equipment will be provided. There is also an “Intro to Scuba Diving” briefing and pool skills session prior to the dive so you’ll feel calm and confident in the water.
