The Snorkelling
We want to make it possible for the greater public to experience real shark encounters, even if you're not a diver.
As we are now in a position to bring the Tiger Sharks to our baiting station, we can actually put snorkellers on the surface above the bait to see the sharks close up.
Contrary to popular beliefs, the sharks are not the senseless killing machines often imagined by people, but are extremely careful hunters. It is critical for the shark not to get injured as this could mean death from starvation for the animal.
Thus the shark has a careful assessment program for whatever it thinks might be edible.
This in turn means that the shark will not charge up to a snorkelling crowd on the water's surface and start biting people.
Therefore it's possible for snorkellers to drift on the surface and watch the sharks below.

However, we don't want to leave anything up to chance and moreover we don't want our clients to worry.
In order to make this unique experience a pleasure we will construct a snorkelling cage which will be large enough to accommodate 2-3 snorkellers at a time. The bait bucket will be connected to the cage so the snorkellers will at all times be able to see the bait as well as the sharks and their behaviour.
