Shark Cage Dive Season - Day 132 - 14th June 2025
Amazing weather, calms seas, fabulous company, but Mother Nature has spoken and ended the season with no Great White Shark Sightings on our last tour for the 2024/2025 season.
After waiting for the weather to clear this week, we risked an outing to Motunui Island and it was bless! Although our team had that "feeling" (that something was about) no Great White sharks came to visit our vessel today... nothing caught on footage... heartbreaking for our guests, but we look forward to seeing them all again soon!
The 2024/2025 season had a total of 10 days with no Shark Sightings and an additional 6 " Tough Days" where sharks are only sighted but choose not to interact with the vessel. Its always good to know that our presence in their environment means that they come and go as they please. We are super grateful for the 116 days we got to hang out, study and meet over 150 different Great White Sharks this season! Nga mihi!
Thanks to everyone who shared our day out today. Thank you to all our guests, our crew and our fellow shark lovers for making this season one to remember!
NOTE: Due to a team member absence, we are over one month delayed with IDs for Shark Experience tours. Images from our tours are made available to all passengers once the ID process has been completed by our volunteers. Although not part of the tour package, we do encourage everyone to be part of citizen science at its best - ID information is released on INaturalist, so check out https://www.inaturalist.org/people/513483.
