Eye-to-Eye Shark Dives
Immerse Yourself
Experience the thrill of getting up close to more than a dozen massive sharks while learning about their biology and how we can protect them in the wild. Hovering nurse sharks. Gliding sand tiger and sandbar sharks. Black tip reef sharks, shy wobbegong and silvery crevalle jack – all just feet away in the South Pacific Aquarium’s Outer Reef habitat.
Get eye to eye with these beautiful predators – and immerse yourself in their world. Or buy as a gift, via a gift card (in-person or 253.404.3689).
