Dive with
Bull Sharks
An extreme, unique and unforgettable experience only for certified divers
With its warm waters and good visibility, Playa del Carmen is one of the best places in the world to observe Bull sharks from November to March, before they migrate north.
Enjoy the fantastic moment and the adrenaline rush
We want to share with you this incredible experience of being able to observe these elegant and majestic predators up close and in their natural environment, to learn from them and know their true behavior, recognize that they are intelligent wild animals but also that they need our protection.
PADI ADVANCED or PADI OPEN WATER DIVER certification required
We offer two types of dives, the first is for observation only, which requires the PADI OPEN WATER DIVER certificate, the second is the feeding, which requires the PADI ADVANCED certificate.
Not certified?
This is a perfect opportunity to increase your performance in diving. Check out our diving courses!
Observation
PADI OPEN WATER DIVER certification required
The observation is a deep dive to 18m where you will have the opportunity to see various creatures swimming around.
Sometimes the shark approaches and stands in front of the divers, this dive requires calm and control of its buoyancy and therefore proper certification.
Feeding
PADI ADVANCED certification required
Deep dive to 24 m during which the sharks are fed by professional divers to be able to observe them more closely. Divers are assigned a spot that they maintain throughout the dive. Sharks are not shy and do not hesitate to pass among divers.
It is a high adrenaline experience that requires perfect control from each diver and, therefore, adequate certification.
