Located due West of the Baja California, this scuba divers paradise is known for its Great White sharks. Every fall, Great Whites come to the island and congregate in large numbers.
Dive operators bait the water and pull the food away just before the sharks breach. This makes for an incredible show as theses apex predators circle the cages.
Only interested in the food at surface, the sharks swim within feet of the cages as they circle back around to feed again.
On occasion, the sharks are too quick for the wranglers and they get the bait.

The famous rock islands of Palau in Micronesia are breathtaking when seen from land. Once you submerge under the green waters it continue to be awe inspiring. Scuba diving in Palau is challenging to get to but once you are there it is worth the trip. Found just east of the Philippines, this archipelago is the largest shark sanctuary in the world. Diving with these remarkable animals is a must do experience.
Sharks frequent the renowned dive site “Blue Corner” to float in the ocean currents. This dive site requires reef hooks so that divers can casually watch the sharks as they swim by.
Palau also has one of the most unique dive sights in the world – Jelly Fish Lake. During the last ice age these jelly fish were trapped at an inland lake without any predators. Over thousands of years they have evolved and have lost their stingers making them completely harmless to swim with. Without predators, they have thrived on the algae found in the lake multiplying to millions within the lake.
