Bull Shark - Tiburon Toro
The feeding of sharks is a project that began approximately 10 years ago and little by little has had its evolution both in development and in safety, the main objective is to show and promote safe diving with sharks and that they are not killer machines like us. promoted Hollywood, however it is an activity with risks, protocols and rules to be followed only for divers with experience, comfortable with sharks or preferably advanced certification onwards.
Divers will see active sharks and very close to them, they need fast, comfortable, safe descents and follow each of the briefing guidelines ... (do not waste time on the surface with ballast, or accommodating things, cameras, selfie etc ... there are conditions of weather and currents that can separate the group, making it difficult to reach the point of activity or in due course cancel the dive, for this reason it is vitally important every second on the surface and be in a group and coordinated all the time) rapid descents, location in the line of good buoyancy management and optimal air consumptions are requirements for this activity.
It is a dive in Playa del Carmen, very close to the coast, it takes us only 10 min in the boat, to enter the water, descend, take shoulder to shoulder not leaving spaces between them, kneeling subject to a rope will be the feeder in front of them feeding the sharks at 23 meters approx 23 min deep and there will be a dive master in charge of the group or their instructor… and a safety diver in charge of the exclusive support and support of the feeder. They may use cameras and take photos only kneeling on the dot, they cannot move from place to place during the activity, they MUST NOT EXTEND THEIR HANDS OR SEARCH CLOSER TO THE SHARK AND MUST NOT FOR ANY REASON TOUCH THE SHARK.
At the end of the activity we all go up at the same time, without flapping at the bottom avoiding stirring the sand, all in a group we control the ascent to the surface and make the safety stop all as a group at 5 meters for 3 min, stay together and close to the buoy placed by the dive master and wait to get on the boat again .
Exciting, dynamic, pure adrenaline and safely, all in order to protect sharks and give a message to the world that we need them more alive than extinct, to accept the commitment and follow each safety point, diving protocols, write us or call us to your reservation, availability subject to quota and weather conditions advance payments. Strict adherence to schedules and extreme punctuality. The feeder is a professional with a steel suit and adequate techniques to carry out the activity, please do not imitate it, do not try, an accident and it will cost these precious sharks their lives, we try to protect them and keep them alive!
