Let us take you to dive with the 7 Gill Cow Sharks. Being 'eyeballed' by a three metre shark gliding silently past your face is not the kind of experience you forget in a hurry. It is an unbelievable experienced and not to be missed!

This isn't a staged event with divers in a cage, this is a genuine scuba dive done in relatively shallow water (12m maximum making it a dive open to even novice divers) in a location bordered by kelp forest, with a sea bed of both rocky gullies and smooth sand patches. The sharks prevalent in this area are Seven Gill Cowsharks; up to 3M of slow swimming predator named for their seven gill slits and identifiable by the absence of the front dorsal fin (the classic 'shark' fin).

Or scuba dive through a Reef or Kelp Forest, with such a vast variety of Marine life, these Kelp Forests are truly beautiful and make such a relaxing dive. There are a few ship wrecks too.

So let us know the type of dive you would like and we will accompany and guide you.
