Just as long as you don't dare to blame them when they take your arm off. I think its great to get up close to these animals.

Shark diving really is awesome fun. I would seriously recommend it to anyone who is keen.

I was supposed to, but instead spent my 4 hours on the boat hanging off the side getting violently ill (along with several other people). I took dramamine and have never gotten seasick before so it was a complete surprise. Luckily, they say the best viewing is actually from above water so while I didn't get to come "face to face" with the shark like my husband did, I still saw plenty of action from above.

I had always thought shark-watching like this would be kinda terrifying and would also necessitate scuba diving skills I don't have. You've managed to assuage both those fears and I'm happy to pop it back on my holiday wish list. Thank you - now I just need to convince my girlfriend ;) Great.

Good on anyone getting in the water with them! I like watching them on TV, where there’s a screen, land, radio waves, and time separating us. Good on anyone getting in the water with them!

Sharks are my #1 fear, so I'm not sure if I could confront them like this. But your account gives me hope. Wow, Carly, very cool.
