Mexico

Guadalupe is a remote island renowned for cage diving with the great white sharks between July and November. For these months of the year, you can join a liveaboard to have the up-close experience with these sharks in great numbers. In August it is usually the younger sharks that are most active. During the cruise, the cages are typically open from early morning to late afternoon so as to maximise the time in the water.

In the sea of Cortez, the liveaboards offer the best conditions for interactions with the friendly and playful sea lions. The season here runs from July to October and not only are the sea lions an attraction there is also macro life, whale sharks, hammerheads and schooling fish.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
