Dive With Great White Sharks
Ticked off in August 2017
What it is
Cage diving lets you see great white sharks up close in their natural habitat.
How to do it
Operators in Gansbaai near Cape Town, Neptune Islands in Australia and Guadalupe Island in Mexico run cage-diving trips.
Top tip
No diving qualification is needed for surface cages.
My experience
I should explain……I love an adrenaline rush!
For some people, being in in an iron cage with a massive Great White fast-approaching is a big tick on the bucket list, myself included. For others, it’s like being dropped unwillingly into the set of JAWS.
I especially like the concept of putting the humans in the cage, and allowing the animal to be in the natural habitat – it should be adopted more widely, especially in places like zoos.
