Shark Observation Experience Divers (and snorkelers) can enjoy a thrill of a lifetime and at the same time educate themselves about some of the most misunderstood creatures in the ocean. This afternoon excursion allows divers to view sharks up closely, in their own habitat.
An average of a dozen sharks at a time show up for a frozen chum ball feed. The chum ball, composed of frozen fish parts, hangs suspended at about 40 feet in 60 feet of water. Divers kneel off to the side of the sandy bottom. Other than the free meal, to which they help themselves, the shark are not interfered with, or molested in any way.
In addition, the scene attracts hundreds of crumb eaters - angel fish, grouper, snapper and more, gobbling up the left overs. Divers (and snorkelers) have a chance to watch this whole scene unfold. A seminar about sharks precedes or concludes the afternoon excursion.
Cost for the Shark Observation Experience is $85 per diver, and $45 per snorkeler.
