Get in the water with bull, lemon and reef sharks and study them in their natural habitat. Venture to a Rukua Village and hear stories of a Shark God, then raft in the Navua Gorge. 

Survey the natural history, biology, behavior, and ecological and social importance of these formidable creatures that now, after millions of years, are in danger of extinction. Observe and study sharks up close in a controlled underwater environment at the Shark Reef Marine Reserve (SRMR). Discover shark habitats and work toward protecting them. There’s even time for a cultural visit in a Fijian village, where stories of an ancient protective Shark God are shared.  

“Pictures, videos, and words can’t even come close to what you actually see and feel like when in the water with the sharks.” — Patrick Goebel, Independence, OH

Return from this trip having collected vital data and engaged in cultural exchange. Know that you did your part to ensure the future survival of sharks and the Fijian people. Earn 3 credits in marine science, as well as the PADI Advanced Open Water certification.
