Irukandji Shark & Ray Encounters
About this experience
Swimming with sharks is usually an expensive experience, but at Irukandji you’ll have the chance to mingle with a variety of shark and ray species at a more realistic price. And, best of all, 5% of their annual profit goes into research and conservation of the ocean and its inhabitants!
Choose from a number of encounters: a shallow wade in a small lagoon, a dip in a wetsuit where you can feed and interact with the animals, a tropical snorkel amongst sharks and rays, a zebra shark encounter, and a tawny nurse shark encounter that will let you feel the incredible suction they produce (they can suck in six litres of water in one second)! Every encounter comes with commentary from the staff so you can learn more about the marine life you're meeting.

HMBotel notes for choosing your ticket
Compare the inclusions above with your plans: admission, a guided visit and a combination ticket may cover different services. The venue name alone is not enough to compare them.
Check the meeting point and arrival instructions before adding another activity. The displayed duration describes the activity; plan travel from your hotel and your return separately.
Booking and payment take place with Tiqets. On that final page, confirm the date, participants, visit language, final price and cancellation rules; an indicative HMBotel price is not a guarantee of availability.
