Marine Volunteer Shark Tour

 Your commitment will contribute greatly to research and education to create respect and the promotion of these inspiring apex marine animals. Our core beliefs of sustainability and environmental protection are derived from the circular principles of research, respect and promotion.  As a commercial business we work with other tour operators and environmental groups who subscribe to the same ethos of best practice and the highest standards when it comes to animal welfare, animal rights and lowest environmental impact. The work completed on these tours aids the research and science communities and is empowering and important to be part of.
