Maybe for only brief couple passes but we still got to see this beautiful 4.5m female great white shark!


And then we got ourselves some bronzies!


Beautiful bronze shimmer on these sharks!


Thank you all for your patience, we all did great!


The wait was long but finally she showed up, this 4.5m female Great White shark made our afternoon


We had mutliple passes from the shark, many of which were only the surface waters making for some great views from above


These two were all smiles as they exited the cage after encounter a Great White shark


Nose to nose as she came up close and personal to the cage


That characteristic pointed snout of a Great White shark
