Simply put, it was one of the best experiences of my life. I never thought it would be that impactful, but the Captain's and entire Crew's passion and respect for these magnificent creatures made the experience even that much more special. It really was like seeing real life dinosaurs! If you've ever thought about it, do it! You won't regret it, and your fear or fascination will turn into respect and admiration for life and the things we rarely get to see or think about!

I just got back from my trip with Shark Diver and am already planning for the next one! I cannot say enough great things about Martin and Cindy, their professionalism, knowledge, responsiveness and overall customer service was outstanding. The experience was absolutely mind blowing: if you are on the fence about taking one of their trips, hop off and sign up!

Diving with the great whites EXCEEDED my expectations! It was an adrenaline filled vacation seeing these mighty sharks in action. The crew aboard was fantastic - knew all of our names by the first day as well as our preferences for hot drinks, meal orders, etc. And they were helpful getting us into and out of the cages safely and quickly. The Great Whites put on a dramatic show and having a marine biologist and a shark conservationist aboard deepened our understanding and experience. I highly recommend Shark Diver for a thrill of a lifetime!

This was a fantastic trip!! If you have ever thought about doing this DO IT!!! You will come back a changed person. My wife and I have had this trip booked/paid for since 2019 and with Covid it kept getting pushed back. We have been looking forward to this trip for a long time and the wait was well worth it. Living in their world for a few days was amazing. The crew on the Nautilus were outstanding and took great care of us. Martin was very knowledgeable and Cindy took care of us all the way there and back. We met amazing people on this journey who were just as crazy about sharks as we are. We
