Kick the new year off with a bang with our Dare to Scare challenge! This year we dare you to dive with sharks at Deep Sea world on Sunday the 26th of January 2020.

 

Come face to face with a three-metre sand tiger shark. You will be in the water with 20 different species of sharks, rays and fish, promising to be an experience you’ll never forget!

 

No diving experience is needed, and all equipment is provided, all you need to bring is courage. You can also bring two spectators for free to watch you and take pictures.

 

Know of anyone who’d be up for this challenge? Dare them to scare.
