Stuart Cove's Shark Dive
This could quite possibly be the most
exciting dives you will ever do. Stuart Cove’s
Shark Adventure™ is a 2-tank dive program which
introduces thrill seeking divers to wild sharks and
provides you a close up look at these magnificent and
misunderstood creatures.
There are currently five sites where
we dive with the sharks. You will dive either the combination
of "Shark Wall" and "The Arena" or
the combination of "Runway Wall" and "The
Runway". At either location encounter a gathering
of Caribbean Reef Sharks on a consistent basis.
Your first dive is a "Free Swim" with
the sharks on a magnificent wall. The sharks will follow
you throughout the dive because we are close to our
feeding site and they know the dinner bell will ring
soon. However, no bait is exposed on this dive. This
keeps the sharks curious and creates a very natural
encounter for divers - just as you would encounter a
shark in the wild.
Your second dive is a shark feeding dive.
Unlike ordinary dives - you will spend this dive kneeling
on the sand bottom. Divers form a semi-circle in front
of our professional shark feeder who will place a bait
box. Your feeder utilizes the bait box and a pole spear
to control the release of food which influences the
sharks behavior. While novice shark divers may not notice
it - during the shark feeding dives your feeder tries
to keep the sharks in a "polite" feeding
posture. However be warned - the sharks will come close
- very close - but they are more interested in the bait
instead of you!
