We make it our mission to actively encourage visitors to dive in (literally) and take a closer look at our collection of majestic marine creatures. So if you\u2019ve ever wondered what it\u2019s like to be on the other side of an aquarium tank, this is your chance \u2013 because as therapeutic as fishwatching may be, some of us seek greater thrills.<\/p>\n
We strive to replicate the most authentic shark-diving experience, so you\u2019ll be swimming cageless under the watchful eye of our divers. While it can be a challenge getting over the initial mental barrier, there\u2019s a first time for everything! That\u2019s why our dive team will be on standby at all times to give inexperienced divers the necessary instructions and the much-needed confidence boost.
\nAs if that wasn\u2019t enough, we\u2019d also love you to bring along two friends for moral support or simply to witness your bravery whilst you swim amongst sharks \u2013 because shared experiences are better experiences.<\/p>\n
The \u2018Bubblemaker\u2019 program is designed for adventurers aged between 8 and 15 who are brave enough to dive deep into a shark-filled tank!
\nThis is a cage dive to ensure the safety of young shark-divers, but it doesn\u2019t compromise on the thrill factor. Your little ones can expect plenty of opportunities to come face-to-face with the Sand Tiger Sharks and possibly help our divers feed them too!
\nRemember, no scuba diving experience is needed to join our \u2018Bubblemaker\u2019 program. You don\u2019t even need to know how to swim. Just don\u2019t forget to pack your curiosity, and we\u2019ll take care of the rest.<\/p>\n
We didn\u2019t forget about all you experienced divers! If you\u2019re PADI-qualified and looking for a dive with a difference, you\u2019ll be glad to hear that we regularly hold a special Shark Dive Night on selected Friday evenings.
\nThis is the perfect opportunity for you to get up close to one of Europe\u2019s largest collections of Sand Tiger Sharks \u2013 so, how do you fancy a nighttime swim with our ocean giants?<\/p>\n
What if swimming with sharks just isn\u2019t enough to quench your thirst for shark knowledge? Then we\u2019d like to invite all qualified divers with a keen interest in underwater wildlife to take part in our Shark Awareness Course \u2013 a PADI Specialty course dedicated to all things sharks.
\nThis full-day course consists of topics from shark conservation to specialist skills that will prepare you for future shark dives in the wild. What\u2019s more, completion of the course will also count towards your PADI Master SCUBA Diver Certification.<\/p>\n
Collectively, our dive team has over 100 years of diving experience. Each member of the squad is fully qualified by PADI standards to make sure every visiting diver can freely and safely immerse themselves in the wonders of the deep.
\nWe\u2019re open seven days a week, so if shark-watching on dryland just doesn\u2019t speak to your inner daredevil, be sure to check out all our shark diving sessions and other exhibits. Dive into an experience you\u2019ll never forget.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
