SHARK DIVE EXPERIENCES!
About Our Junior Shark Dive Experiences
Looking for a unique Birthday present for the junior explorer in your life? Why not give them the chance to get face to fin with some of the coolest creatures in the ocean?
At Blue Planet Aquarium, we have special kid-sized scuba gear, allowing children to have an up-close experience with our amazing sharks!
Your dinky diver will head, completely supervised, to the reef section of the Ocean tank for the once in a lifetime experience of diving with Zebra Bullhead Shark, Arabian and Brownbanded Bamboo Sharks, Moray Eels, Wobbegong Sharks and a variety of tropical fish,
Please note:
Junior divers must be aged 8 to 15, and a minimum height of 125cm (4ft2″)
Adults cannot accompany children in the tank during the dive.
Our underwater bridge platform means junior dives will take place at a safe depth of two metres. You’ll be able to see their dive with a birds eye view on the tank’s surface, or in our aqua tunnel – don’t worry though, you’ll remain on dry land throughout!

- Full instructions and expert supervision
