The baited shark dive at Protea Banks is a high-adrenaline, mid-water experience. Divers drift in the blue as a bait drum attracts numerous sharks, including oceanic blacktips, bull sharks, and often the magnificent tiger shark.

An open-water drift dive where a bait drum is used to attract sharks. This is a world-class experience for seeing oceanic blacktip sharks in large numbers, as well as bull sharks and tiger sharks. Not for the faint of heart.
