Seamlessly organized, wonderful day that went beyond all expectation. The local tour company were spectacular. Couldnt be more pleased!!
Superb day out, but just remember it's a long day. If you have a wetsuit, bring it as many of the ones on board can be a bit small, large or not in the best condition. But once you're in the ocean everything is great and you forget about your wetsuit as you get the 1st glimpse of a 16 feet great white only 4 feet away. I was lucky there were plenty of sharks about that day--seeing sharks is not guaranteed.
What can I say, no sharks on the day we took the trip. We were given a free voucher to try again.
The Shark experience was one that I enjoyed to a point. The staff were excellent, the information very informative. The disappointment was that they maximised the number of people on the boat I estimated 40, of whom some 24 wanted to go in the cage which meant each dive lasted no more than a matter of minutes. I understand from talking to some rival operators that others are much more smaller numbers.
The Sharks where amazing, but we where packed in like sardines on the boat. Thirty to forty people. There wasn't room to change your clothes. Everyone got sick from the overcrowded boat. I was lucky to have had a half hour in the cage. I would have had less time if no one had gotten sick. The breakfast and lunch were horrible. In a country where food is relatively inexpensive, it should have been much better.
