shark diving, mexico

Be one of the first divers to participate in the first ever SHARKSCHOOL™ on the Riviera Maya, Mexico from 15-25 February 2016. This unique conservation and teaching event will be hosted by Regaldive's resort partners Pro Dive Mexico, in association with world-renowned shark behavioural scientist Dr. Erich Ritter. Participants in the 11 day event will spend five days diving with bull sharks, learning how to interpret their behaviour and react appropriately, as well as attending daily workshops led by Dr. Ritter, a leading shark communication expert. An additional three days will be spent on exciting sailfish encounters, also led by Dr. Ritter and his team.

The aim of SHARKSCHOOL™ is to promote confident and safe interaction with sharks, therefore allowing greater understanding of these amazing creatures and the special connection between humans, sharks and shark conservation. Dr. Ritter says: "Once a person is capable of blocking the erroneous media created image, lets the situation develop without prejudice or fear, and solely tries to interpret the shark’s signals and the environmental factors, an encounter will be rewarding, and not just for the person but the shark as well."

The 11 days / 10 nights SHARKSCHOOL™ & SAILFISH ENCOUNTER package for 15-25 February 2016 can be booked with Regaldive for £2,099 per diver and includes:

  • Return transfers Cancun - Playacar - Cancun
