West Florida Shark Diving

West Florida’s Leading Shark Excursions

The waters of the Gulf of Mexico off of Florida’s West Coast are loaded with a variety of shark species. These species make Sarasota and West Florida one of the best locations in the world for shark diving and viewing encounters.

The normally calm waters of the Gulf of Mexico provide our divers with top-of-the-line conditions to meet the ocean’s apex predators face-to-face. 

West Florida Shark Diving has refined the process of successful shark diving over the course of thousands of dives across the world with a variety of awe-inspiring shark species.

Whether it’s your first time in the water with sharks, or you are an experienced open-water shark diver, our team puts you on the sharks and offers our guests everything that they need for a successful and unforgettable day on the water.

At West Florida Shark Diving, we offer our guests two stunning adventures. The first is our shark diving trips that bring you face-to-face with the sharks of the Gulf of Mexico. On this excursion, you are invited to get in the water with shark species that are native to the West Coast of Florida, including bull sharks, lemon sharks, silky sharks and more!

Our second excursion is our thrilling shark viewing trips that put you on the action with sharks from the comfort of our boats. On a shark viewing trip, our guests can view the action from the surface of the ocean, and even get a chance to play tug-of-war with a shark if you are lucky!

Both trips are only a short ride away from our docks in Sarasota, where we base our West Florida Shark Diving operations.
