NOTE: Departing Port Denarau Marina daily at 8:45am, you must double-check your coach transfer pick-up time and failure to do so will result in you missing your tour. Complimentary coach transfers are provided to/from most of the Nadi/Denarau & Wailoaloa resorts. Should you miss the complimentary coach transfer, you will need to find your own way to/from Port Denarau at your own cost.

Departing Port Denarau daily you'll board our high-speed catamaran and travel through the Mamanuca Islands bound for Barefoot Kuata Resort in the southern Yasawa Islands. Kuata Island boasts a picture-perfect beach, transparent turquoise waters, unusual rock formations and the same warm hospitality synonymous with Fijian people. There is rustic 'Robinson Crusoe' styled accommodation with the comforts of a restaurant, bar, hammocks and three swimming pools. Following a briefing on the beachfront, you’ll board a boat with your guides and travel to our snorkelling with reef sharks site. Departure times vary depending on tides and sea conditions. For the remainder of the day, enjoy lunch and make use of the facilities at Barefoot Kuata Resort which offers great snorkelling, kayaks and scenic walking tracks.

Is it safe? Yes. You’ll be provided with safety instruction from our experienced guides who’ve spent hundreds of hours getting to know our resident school of sharks. Our guides will be in the water with you the entire time and will closely monitor the sharks behaviour to ensure your safety.

What type of sharks will I see? There are two main species of sharks encountered, White Tip Reef Sharks and Black Tip Reef Sharks, both are common in the tropical warm waters of the South Pacific. Each species can grow to a length of just over 1.5 metres although under the water they appear 25% larger, a snorkeling face mask optical illusion. White Tips are the dominant species and are by nature an inquisitive shark not frightened to check you out. Their Black Tip relatives are by contrast timid and will shy away if they feel threatened.

How many sharks will I see? Numbers vary but it is common to see up to six sharks.

How deep is the water? Both Black Tip and White Tip Reef Sharks prefer shallower waters making snorkeling easy with good visibility. It’s even possible to see the sharks from our boat before entering the water. Water depth varies between 4 - 6 metres depending on the tide.

What if I’m not a good swimmer, haven’t snorkeled before or don’t want to snorkel but my travelling companion does? Buoyancy aids are available for less confident swimmers and because these sharks prefer shallow waters there’s no necessity to dive under the water to secure a thrilling view. Non-snorkelers can join the day but sit out the snorkeling experience.

Our Shark Guarantee As Sharks are wild animals we cannot guarantee sightings however we have a 95% +success rate of sighting sharks. In the event that you don’t see any sharks we are happy for you to return for a complimentary “Ultimate Encounter - Snorkel with Sharks” within 3 days of your original cruise.
