Experience an extreme adrenaline
rush with the Two Oceans Aquarium's five ragged tooth sharks.
Dive in and get extremely close-up
with these menacing creatures of the deep!
The Aquarium offers a unique and
exciting opportunity to all qualified scuba divers to dive in the Aquarium's
two main exhibits, the I&J Predator Exhibit and the Kelp Forest. |
| The I&J Predator Exhibit, containing
two million litres of water, is home to five ragged tooth sharks, a variety
of rays, two turtles, shoals of yellowtail, leervis (garrick) and other
fishes and the occasional visiting sunfish.
Dive into history with the copper
hat dive in the I&J Predator Exhibit. Wearing a copper helmet
weighing 18 kg, a bulky canvas suit, lead-weighted boots and weight-belt,
qualified divers are able to 'stroll' amongst the sharks, turtles, rays
and shoals of fishes. |

For those who are fearful of sharks,
there is an equally thrilling dive opportunity in the Kelp Forest Exhibit.
This display contains 800.000 litres of water and is one of the best kelp
forests on display in the world.
Qualified divers can feed the multitude
of fishes which include red roman, red stumpnose, galjoen - the national
fish of South Africa and white stumpnose amongst others. |
| The feed is extremely exciting as
the fishes swarm around the diver, clamouring for food.
And for those who are not so brave,
witness an extreme feed in the Aquarium
on Sundays at 15h30 and see the sharks devour their food from the divers. |
