Oceanic Whitetips Expedition

Oceanic Whitetip Safaris are thrilling and exciting events. Whitetips are bold and curious sharks. The entire dive occurs around 20 to 30 feet, but in blue water (meaning there is no bottom), so expert buoyancy control is required. We aim for two dives, but nothing is guaranteed when wild animals are involved.
