We absolutely loved the experience. The marine biologist guides were friendly, really well-informed and they were clearly passionate about the sharks. The wade out to the sharks was a bit tricky - It is quite rocky and slippery, so beach shoes are a must. The sharks were amazing - They were super friendly, quite inquisitive and not shy of having their photos taken! The only disappointing bit was the large unofficial groups that were there, sloshing bits of dead fish around.
Living in the coastal subtropical waters around Sal, lemon sharks are one of the easiest sharks to spot in their natural habitat. You'll venture out to Shark Bay with a marine biologist to interact and learn about these fascinating creatures on this half-day trip.
After pick-up from your hotel, you'll drive to Shark Bay over on the east coast of Sal where your lemon shark experience will begin. You'll wade out into the water with a marine biologist, who will guide you step by step and teach you all about this incredible species.
Spot their yellow-tinted skin – ideal for camouflage in the sandy shores – and watch them as they go about their business, twisting and turning, and looking for fish just a few feet away. You'll see their fins cutting through the surface of the water and get to know these sharks closer than you could imagine.
