Scuba diving with sharks in Australia
About this list
If you want to go scuba diving with sharks in Australia, the useful question is not whether the sharks are there but who will take you to them that way. Maptlantis lists only the 3 operators in Australia that name the shark as a target species and actually run scuba diving. All 3 operators on this list publish prices on their own channels, so you can compare them directly. Estimated prices are not shown. Most operators list year-round operation, but whether boats go out depends on the sea on the day. Operators with structured encounter data list gray reef shark, whitetip reef shark, silvertip shark, coral and octopus as target species. Ways to meet them: scuba diving, swimming, boat-based watching and snorkeling. Whether you may enter the water and what distance rules apply differ by country and operator. Check the program details and legal status on each operator page first.
