Awesome Shark Experience! - This was an AWESOME experience! This is a snorkeling trip, not a scuba dive trip. Experience with snorkeling will be helpful, but not required. The Boat ride was a little rough so if you are not used to rough water, bring your anti-nausea medication or sea-bands. The guides were very knowledgeable about the sharks and were great in helping us get the most out of the experience. I think we only saw Galapagos sharks, but they say you have the potential to see other species like Tiger, Hammerhead and others. NOTE: You cannot take your iPhones in those water-tight cases in the water while swimming with the sharks. GoPros are allowed, however, if you want an even better experience, they have a photographer on board that will take pictures of you swimming with the sharks for $75/person. It's hard to get those cool pics if you're handling a GoPro while swimming with them. We opted to have the photographer take pics for us. Each of us got anywhere from 200-300+ pictures delivered to us. It takes the photographer about a week to process them and load them up to a Google drive, but it's worth it! If you have never done anything like this before, this is a great opportunity to be adventurous.

Awesome!!! - All nervousness was completely gone after meeting the crew. They were nice and very educated! Never felt unsafe and we saw a ton of sharks, along with a whale sighting on the way out! If you’re even considering doing this, just do it. This was probably one of the coolest things I’ve ever done. The one thing to be aware of is motion sickness. Highly recommend taking some medicine for that and going in the morning. Towards the end of our excursion I started to feel a bit sick as the waves became a little stronger. But I would definitely do it all over again. So worth it!

Ricky, the shark expert... - Ricky, the shark expert was very knowledgeable and made you feel safe. Parker, the photographer, was amazing in the water and his instructions while taking the photos were always done with kindness and patience. Captain Mattie was an excellent captain and helped out whenever he wasn’t driving the boat. All around the three of them made the day outstanding!! Highly recommend hanging out with them. And, of course, the sharks (saw about 10 swimming around us) and so cool!!
