It is an Adventure for people of all ages, although

environment. The depths of the ocean floor cage vary but average 18m, so you
need at least your Open Water SCUBA certificate (or equivalent) to take part in
these experiences. No certificate is needed for surface cage diving.

ITINERARY DESCRIPTION

DAY 1 BOARD 10.30am 

Safety Briefing, Crew Introduction, Necessary Dive
Paperwork, Cabin allocation and ship orientation will take place before
departing the Harbour.

During the journey to our first overnight anchorage, please
take this opportunity to familiarize yourselves with the vessel and make
yourself comfortable. 

Please Note: This is a sample itinerary and number of dives,
dive sites, including a swim with sealions etc. may be subject to change due to
weather conditions and other unforeseeable factors.

DAY 2

Divers are briefed, and the Surface Cage hits the water,
ready for action. Our priority is for everyone to see the sharks in the
surface cage before SCUBA divers descend deeper in our submersible cage diving
guests in 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. Here,
there are many bird species to watch and the elusive Australian Sea Lions can
also sometimes be spotted. More shark talks in the evening and then time for
bed ready for the next day’s big adventure.

DAY 3

More time with the great whites viewing topside, in the
surface cage or down on the ocean floor and by now your shark identification
skills will be finely tuned.

The evening brings more opportunity to immerse yourself in
the beauty of the Neptune Islands, listening to the sounds of the seals with a
chilled glass of white. There is plenty time to chill out and rest. Hit
the hay when you feel like it.

DAY 4

More time to spend Surface and Ocean Floor diving – there is
no time limit in the cages, if 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.

Itinerary indicative only (subject to weather and any other circumstances that may affect
the scheduling of events).

DAY 5 DISEMBARK 8PM

More time to spend Surface and Ocean Floor diving – there is
no time limit in the cages, if everyone has their fair share. You can also do
