Shark Cage Diving

This is the opportunity of a lifetime to get face-to-face with Sharks! This tour takes you into the open ocean 3 miles off the North Shore of Oahu, where you can observe Galapagos and Sandbar sharks in their natural environment from the safety of a cage.


What to Expect

A floating cage keeps humans and sharks safely separated from each other. Guests can enter the cage from above and will stay on the surface using a mask and snorkel. Large Poly Glass windows let you peer into the open ocean and watch the sharks as they glide gracefully and effortless through the deep blue. You do not have to be a great swimmer as there are handles to hold inside the cage.

Curiosity will bring them within inches of the window where your gaze will meet theirs. To be in the presence of such awe inspiring animals will open your eyes and change the way you see sharks forever.

With Hawaii Shark Encounters you will see sharks like you have never seen them before. Anyone that has visited the deep blue walks away a changed person, having found a new appreciation for the ocean's incredible inhabitants. It will be the blue water experience you will never forget.

Keep in mind that we are dealing with a wilderness experience and Mother Nature is in charge, so occasionally we must reschedule tours because of the weather. If you're flexible, we promise to get you in another day. After the shark tour, check out the town and beautiful public beaches nearby. The harbor is easy walking distance from lots of great shops and site seeing in Haleiwa town.
