Enjoy the best Shark Diving Tour in Punta Cana with El Tour Caribe. Located a short boat ride from shore is a pristine dive site where Caribbean reef sharks and nurse sharks abound. Believe it or not, Punta Cana is a great place to see these amazing creatures in their natural habitat.

What will your Best Shark Diving Tour in Punta Cana schedule look like?

You will be tranferred from your hotel to the beach where you will board the boat. From there, you will enjoy a short boat ride to the reef.

Located at about 25 meters beneath the surface, in the open ocean, the dive site is accessed by dropping down slowly onto the reef. Consequently, there is no anchor line here, and you must be comfortable doing a free descent.  Most times, the water is very clear and visibility is usually quite good. As the apex predors of the sea, the reef sharks are normally found patrolling the reef, while the nurse sharks are more likely to be found resting on the sand. You will do 1 dive on this site and return to shore.

A note about the sharks.

Caribbean reef sharks and nurse sharks are not aggressive. Furthermore, on this site, they are used to seeing divers. However, it is important for you and all divers to respect them and maintain a safe distance. As a safe practice, you are to never touch a shark, and never swim over or between them.

Do not miss this great opportunity to see these amazing creatures up close and learn more about them. With our experienced guides, you will be able to enjoy a safe and unforgettable shark diving experience.

This is a half day tour and is only available in the mornings. You Must be Advanced Diver or higher level in order to participate. A minimum of 2 divers needed for the trip to go out.
