The Great White Expedition gives 3 days diving and 3 nights onboard the Rodney Fox.  This is the perfect trip for anyone who has ever wanted to jump into the cage and experience the thrill of seeing Great White Sharks up close. Even watching them from the boat is amazing.  It is an Expedition for all ages, although we recommend children are at least 8 years old, and able to cope in an adult environment. 

Day 1

We’ll meet you outside of the Marina Hotel, Port Lincoln at 6.15 pm and escort you to the MV Rodney Fox. Welcome aboard at 6:30 pm.  Formal inductions and safety talk will begin, followed by being shown to your cabins to unload your belongings. Anchors away and we head off to Hopkins Island or the Neptune Islands. Please note that dinner is included onboard on this first night. 

Day 2        

It’s worth getting up at day-break for the rest of the journey down to the Neptune Islands. The scenery is spectacular – we pass through the stunning Thorny Passage and stop by the Hopkins Islands for an hour so you can snorkel with Australian Sea Lions. Anchor at the Neptune Islands (our destination), where you’ll no doubt spot a few dorsal fins. Divers are briefed, and the cages hit the water, ready for action!

Relax, unwind, talk about the day while feasting on the buffet, check out the amazing night-sky, retire to your cabin.

Day 3

Diving resumes in the Surface Cage and the Ocean Floor Cage. We also like to hop in the tender boat, check out the New Zealand Fur Seals and go walking around the Neptune Islands. By now, you'll be getting to your sharks and the Rodney Fox Shark Presentation in the evening will share even more information about these wonderful animals.

Day 4 

More time to spend Surface and Ocean Floor diving – there is no time limit in the cages, as long as everyone has their fair share. You can also do some Shark and Wildlife watching from the observation deck, relax with a book – anything that floats your boat.

Leave the Neptune Islands by 3:00 pm and
enjoy some lovely local South Australian ‘wine on the bow’ and a delightful
charcuterie board will be served with a selection of preserved fine
foods, cured meats, pates, dips as well as cheeses and crackers, fresh fruits and
nuts - usually with common dolphins joining us for company. 

We arrive back in Port Lincoln by 8.00PM for guests to disembark.
