TRIP DETAILS
Rhode Island Shark Diving brings people up close and personal to the most beautiful marine animals in a once in a lifetime experience. We are the only dive operation in the world that does night diving.
We take a maximum of 6 people per trip and is snorkel only as all action is at the surface. We do not use a cage. The sharks show up anywhere between a couple of minutes and a couple of hours. Our trips are about 12 hours round trip.
The majority of trips are set up in sets of 3 consecutive days to maximize water time and opportunity. There are a couple of days each month for guests who wish to do one day.
