Australia is probably the country in the world with the most diversified shark diving possibilities.
You can do everything from a morning tank shark dive in an aquarium in Sydney or Melbourne to a several-day live-aboard Great White Shark dive from Adelaide or Port Lincoln.
Aquarium Shark Diving The easiest way to try to try shark diving is in an aquarium.
Australia has several places where it is possible.
The best aquarium shark diving is in Sydney, Melbourne and the Sunshine Coast.
In Sydney you can even feed the sharks.
On a tank shark dive you will encounter shark species like: Grey Nurse Sharks, Leopard Sharks, Whitetip Reef Sharks, Shovel Nosed Sharks, Whaler Sharks and Wobbegongs Sharks You do not have to be a certified diver to do a shark dive.
If you have not dived before, you will get an introduction course first.
You can also use the aquarium shark diving as a tune-up course, if your diving skills are a little "rusty".
A shark dive in an aquarium is a great birthday gift.
And your friends and family can watch the shark diver from the outside of the tank.
All adults in normal health can do the shark diving.
Great White Shark Diving A totally different experience is Great White Shark diving.
Even though it is possible to go on a Great White Shark diving expedition from Sydney, the main departure points are Adelaide and Port Lincoln in South Australia.
Most of the Great White Shark diving trips will be heading for the Neptune Islands (around 70 kilometers south-south east of Port Lincoln).
Here you will see an array of wildlife, including many bird species, thousands of fur seals, dolphins and the rare Australian sea lion.
But the main attraction is of course the Great White Shark cage diving.
The area is the natural feeding ground of the Great White Shark, which makes it a fantastic experience.
Normally you will start the cage diving in the surface cages.
The submersible cage dives usually wait until the second day.
Both divers and non-divers can do the expedition.
If you are not a certified diver, you just stay in the surface cage.
The best time for Great White Shark diving is around February and from late May through to October.
