Product Description

Shark Cage Diving Tour

We leave Bluff and then enjoy the sights of the Foveaux Strait for approximately 45 minutes heading south toward the lovely Northern TiTi Islands. Our sightseeing tour begins and we park up at our first dive spot for morning tea.

For those passengers who plan on getting 'wet' its time to get changed while our Dive Guide takes new divers through a quick training session (see Dive Training included option $599). This training covers everything you need to know about using our submerged viewing platform and its surface air supply regulators.

The first dive for each diver is about 20 minutes, allowing time to get use to the cage environment. After the first dive, its just a case lining up and getting wet!

There is no fixed itinerary for the day as it all depends on the arrival of some magnificent and majestic, but wild animals!
