Oceanic Whitetip Sharks Expedition

 

April 22-28 2012 US$2995
Cat Island, Bahamas. 3 Spots left!

Package includes:

- Five full days of shark diving.

- Accommodation at Hawksnest Resort Cat Island (double occ).

- Light breakfast at the hotel and lunch on the dive boat.

Come diving with Oceanic Whitetip Sharks!

 

Oceanic Whitetips are some of the most threatened pelagic sharks in the world. Notorious for their bold behavior, they are the quintessential open ocean predators.
Depleted in much of their range, the oceanic whitetip population of the outer Bahamian islands is still thriving, making this a unique 'last chance' encounter.

Join me on an expedition to one of the sharkiest islands in the Bahamian chain. Cat Island juts into the 'Tongue of the Ocean' where migrating tuna attract oceanic whitetips and other large predators rarely seen this close to shore.

 

We will be staying at Hawksnest Resort and Marina and venturing each day out to deep water where oceanic whitetip sharks are regularly encountered.

 

As well as plenty of oceanic whitetips, Cat Island is home to bull sharks, silkies, Caribbean reef sharks, lemons, nurse sharks and tigers. Its only a matter of time before this epic shark diving destination makes its way into the record books as one of the most extreme shark diving locations in the world. NOW is the time to go!
