Has the time of my life, it was a once in a lifetime experience. If I ever had the chance to do it again I wouldn’t hesitate. Guides were great and the shark experience even better. Oh yeah and we saw whales!
Best excursion we did on Oahu!

FAQ
Q. What is the possibility of the shark getting into the cage?
A. This has never happened in North Shore Shark Adventure's 11 years of operation. Sharks have never shown interest in entering the cage. Although the sharks you see, mainly Galapagos sharks, are large, they are more interested in eating the fish.
Q. How long are you in the cage?
A. You will be in the cage for approximately 20 minutes, offering plenty of time to get up close and personal with the sharks.
Q. How big is the cage?
A. The metal cage is 9 feet by 8 feet wide and 8 feet tall (deep). There are handle-bars inside the cage on all sides and plexi-glass windows for clear and unobstructed views. A step-ladder is available to allow easy access.
Q. How many people can fit in the shark cage?
A. Cage divers are broken into 2-3 groups. Depending on passenger count, size, and ability, we may place up to 8 people in the cage comfortably.
Q. How far in advance should I book this activity?
A. We recommend booking at least 1-2 weeks in advance. If you have very specific schedule requirements and are not flexible, please book sooner. Last-minute availability is often possible, but limited.
Q. What type of boat is used?
A. Abunai is a custom designed 47-foot aluminum boat and only two years old. Seats 28 passengers but a maximum of 24 for passengers are allowed for the guest's comfort. Padded seats and backrests are available for comfortable seating.
Kaiou is a custom designed 35-foot aluminum boat and only two years old. Seats a maximum of 19 for passengers. Padded seats and backrests are available for comfortable seating.
Anela is a 32-foot Anderson boat and the heart of the company. One of the original boats in the fleet and seats 15 passengers but a maximum of 12 passengers are allowed for the guest's comfort. This is a true fishing boat and has one of the original cages assigned to it. This boat is operated only as needed.

Q. How old is the minimum age to participate?
A. Children 3 years and older can get in the cage, while all ages may observe sharks from the boat.
