Great White Shark Dive & Tour

Set off from Port Lincoln for one of Australia’s most talked-about wildlife experiences: a full-day shark cage diving charter to the Neptune Islands Marine Park, where Great White Sharks are regularly seen in clear Southern Ocean waters. This is the only place in Australia where you can cage dive with Great Whites, and the trip is designed to give you the best possible chance of a close encounter while still keeping things comfortable and well organised.

Out on the water, the day unfolds at a steady pace: a three-hour ocean crossing, morning tea, lunch and afternoon tea, and plenty of time to watch the action from the vessel’s spacious upper and lower decks. When sharks are around, the crew lowers the cage and groups enter in small numbers, giving you room to take it all in and capture a few unforgettable photos. Whether you’re in the cage or watching from the deck, you’ll feel the salt spray, scan the water for movement and soak up a seriously memorable day. If seeing a Great White up close has been on your mind, this is the place to do it.

Know before you go: - If you’re making your own way to the boat, arrive 30 minutes before departure. - The crossing to the Neptune Islands is around three hours each way and takes place in open ocean conditions. - Travel sickness medication is strongly recommended the night before and again on the morning of departure. - Bring sun protection, a warm layer, a camera and anything else you’d usually want for a full day at sea. - A Visitor Use Fee is payable by all guests entering the Neptune Islands Marine Park for this tour. - Shark sightings are not guaranteed, and if no sharks are seen, the operator offers a discounted return ticket under its no-shark policy.
