So I have finally got around to making a video edit from our unbelivable experience cage diving with a great white shark at the Neptune islands in South Australia.
This has been on my bucket list for many years and this was our 3rd time out in hope to see a great white. As the first two times we didnt have any luck, so we had to come back.
And what do you know, third times a charm and we got to see three different white sharks on this day.
It was the middle of winter and the water was freezing! All I can say is good thing we had wetsuits on. But the moment we spotted a shark the cold was the least of our worries.. We got into the cage with the quickness to witness an apex predator of the sea with our own eyes.
And WOW were we in for an unforgetable day!.
When inside the cage the only sound you can hear is the bubbles from our regulaotrs and the cage bumping up against the boat. Berley is dumped in from above and the trevally go nuts eating it. Our heads are on a swivel as we look around in search of a great white.
All of sudden, off in the distance a huge shape apears... At first I thought it was a king fish but then the other king fish looked tiny compared to this beast!
He did a couple of laps passed the cage then disapppeared.
Then from the blurry depths this 4.5 meter monster came straight up to the bait at full speed and launched out of the water!
Wow what a sight!!
He lands back into the water on his back and slowly sinks down.
It was so crazy to watch as it is dead silent, then all of a sudden the trevally all swim off in different dirtections as the shark torpedos himself to the surface.
I'll let the video do the talking :)
I thought a metal cover of the jaws theme song was very suitable track for the video.
I highly recomend adding cage diving to your bucket list.
Happy travels!
