Shark Dives In Hawaii

By Morten Elm

Hawaii has some of the best shark diving in the world. So if you are on vacation in Hawaii, you can try to swim with sharks there. An experience you will never forget.

Hawaii is actually 132 islands; including the larger islands Maui and Oahu, which has the best shark diving. The islands are located 2400 miles from the continent, which gives it a unique underwater environment.

About 40 shark species can be found in the water around Hawaii. You can expect to see Scalloped Hammerhead Shark, Reef Whitetip Sharks and Sandbar Sharks; and if you are lucky also Tiger Sharks and even Whale Sharks.

The visibility of the amazing cobalt blue water is approximately 200 feet; some of the best in the world. Hawaii is a divers Paradise.

If you want to try an adrenalin-pumping activity, you should try shark cage diving (or more accurate shark cage swimming).

The best place to try this special kind of activity is Oahu. You are placed in a floating cage in the water. From here you and up to three other people can encounter the sharks from a very heart pumping distance.

So if you are on holiday and you have never tried a shark cage dive, Oahu is a great location for this thrilling experience.

Another great place for diving is Maui, which actually is considered one of the top diving destinations in the world. There is a lot of diving possibilities here, including reef diving and diving near volcanic craters.

But the most exciting shark encounter is without doubt with the amazing and huge Whale Shark. It is not something you can expect to see on every dive. But you can actually be lucky enough to see them on a snorkeling trip.

If you do not want to take the risk not to see any sharks, you can instead take a dive in the 750,000 gallon fish tanks in the Maui Ocean Center aquarium. Here you can see 20 sharks, a lot of stingrays and thousands of colorful, tropical reef fish.

So if you want to dive with sharks in an aquarium or in the ocean, Maui or Oahu is the places to go.
