We had about 7 or 8 different sharks with us all day and the guests were all really excited, especially the youngest guest, Sam, who dove with me in the submersible cage and said he had a blast watching them.

It’s Day 3 at Guadalupe Island already and the great white sharks have been amazing! Every dive presents both familiar and new sharks, new shark behaviour, and exciting moments.
Read MoreOn the trip out to the last dive guests were treated to the sight of a manta feeding on the surface at the dive site. We observed two separate incidents of interesting shark behaviour during the day.
Read MoreGreat white sharks are considered to have “adaptive intelligence” and learn lessons as they try out new behaviour – a trait which is presumably very useful to an apex predator. Adaptive intelligence seemed to be at work here as this white shark learned that he could “sneak up” on the throw lines without the wranglers on the back deck seeing him. That is, until he brushed up against a sacrificial zinc on the hull of the Nautilus and scratched himself, which in turn seemed to end his experimentation with this new type of behaviour.

Well, we saw 2 different sharks that couldn’t have been more than 6 feet long! Way cool and I would think much younger than even a year old. They were unbelievably cute (if you are into great white sharks that is).
