Day 3
Bull Shark Encounter (1 tk)
- Hotel Breakfast - Bull shark encounter 1 tk (transport not included): We will be diving with the bull sharks at 80 ft. This is a static dive where you will have to stay in your assigned place. So if you’re up for this high-octane adventure, check it out and join us on this trip of a lifetime! Bull sharks are very large creatures; they are not shy and often pass near divers. This is normal behavior for them; it will definitely be an adrenaline rush. We use fish to bring the sharks in close, which sometimes causes them to get excited. Their position in the food chain is vital for the health of the ecosystem. The more we learn about these animals the more we can enjoy and protect them.

Your guide will provide a thorough briefing at Maya Blue (or cenote) concerning scuba-procedures, safety, cenote regulation, history, and any points of interest. After you have a good understanding what you can expect, you will be able to enjoy your experience even more. We will provide transportation to go to the cenote. We insist on small groups and have private vehicles available, to avoid overcrowded mini-vans.

There will be the opportunity to enjoy the (included) lunch and beverages. After lunch, you will head off to a different cenote for another exciting tour.
