Underwater Photo Of The Day

"We are taking a small group and heading out in search of the elusive and rare oceanic whitetip shark around the deep water drop offs near Cat Island in the Bahamas. This is a land based, off the beaten path adventure. The trip package includes 6 days of diving, transfers to and from airport, and our stay at the dive lodge during our time on Cat Island. Each morning we will head out in search of the sharks and return in the evenings back to the island. We are limiting this trip to six guests so if you interested in joining us, let us know. This is both a snorkel and scuba diving adventure, so scuba gear is needed. This trip is a guaranteed sell out so reserve your spot early!

We were looking forward to checking oceanic white tips out during a free diving trip to the Red Sea a while back. Unfortunately, they weren't around that time. It is strange to see these sharks in the nearby Bahamas.


They are apparently quite wide spread but I have yet to see one off Florida.
