An Incredibly Big Shark Cage

Labor Day weekend marks the Shark Diving Cagestart of great white shark season in San Francisco. This year, divers will view great whites from inside the world's largest shark cage. (At least, we think so. If there's a bigger one out there, we haven't found it!)

Our giant shark cage measures 12 ft long and 5 ft wide and is designed to comfortably accommodate eight shark divers. The cage was custom-built for Incredible Adventures by DOER Marine's Deep Machine division. Based in Alameda, California, DOER (which stands for Deep Ocean Exploration and Research) was founded in 1992 by oceanographer Dr Sylvia Earle and specializes in subsea robotics and submersible systems.

We needed an incredible cage in a hurry and DOER's CEO Liz Taylor, Engineering Director Tony Lawson and Operations Expert Ian Griffith delivered in a very big way. Thanks to their efforts, Incredible Adventures customers will an enjoy a five-star shark cage adventure.   Read more about DOER and their incredible staff on the DOER website.

Tim Taylor is ...(We Honestly Aren't Sure What to Call Him These Days)

Sharks & Diving AdventuresTim Taylor owns and operates the Research Vessel Tiburon, a 63-ft luxury yacht based in Key West and leads our shark and dolphin adventures in Florida and the Bahamas.  That would make him Captain Taylor, but he's really so much more. He's an advanced dive instructor and is overseeing cage dive operations for our San Francisco great white adventures. He's the director of Ocean Outreach, Inc., a non-profit organization dedicated to inspiring ocean conservation.  He's a naturalist and an undersea explorer. Tim's discovery of a shipwreck off the Florida Keys earned him a fellowship in the prestigious Explorer's Club. Most recently, Tim's made international news for his role in the exploration of Pulley Ridge, the deepest coral reef in the United States and his discovery of a new species of coral. Tim is also featured in the latest issue of PADI's Sport Diver Magazine. Call us at 800-644-7382 to find out how you can schedule an incredible underwater adventure with our friend Tim.

Tiburon Means Shark in Spanish - It's Also a Great California Town

Our US great white shark adventures begin in downtown Tiburon. The great little seaside village is located just across the Golden Gate Bridge from San Francisco. It's not too late to book your shark adventure to the Farallon Islands.  Our boat departs from the Angel Island Ferry Dock weekends during the months of September, October and November. Cage dives are $875 and no dive certification is required. If you'd rather stay dry, great topside viewing is also available for $375.
