Diving with Sharks Experience at Skegness Aquarium

Could you muster up the courage to dive with creatures of the deep? Start off with a full safety briefing and equipment orientation, getting to grips with the state-of-the-art full face masks designed to optimise comfort and allow natural breathing. Take the plunge and glide past the Treasure Island Wreck of Hispaniola, coming face to face with magnificent bat rays, tropical fish and beautiful Black Tip Reef Sharks at The Skegness Aquarium – under the watchful eye of an expertly trained instructor, who will be in contact via a communications device throughout. Luckily for you, these mysterious creatures are non-man-eating and will only be curious about their new visitors! After your adrenaline-fuelled shark dive, come up for air and explore other exhibits and marvels of the Skegness Aquarium.
