Shark Diving Destinations In US

If you’d like to use this Shark Week special to dive with sharks we know of a few places. Last week, Travel Noire spoke with Jasmin Graham, a marine biologist who specializes in elasmobranch ecology and evolution. Graham shared six of the best travel destinations around the world for travelers to swim alongside sharks, four of them here in the united states.

  • La Jolla, California

 Every summer, locals, and visitors flock to La Jolla Shores Beach to swim, snorkel, kayak, and dive with the sharks. Even kids can enjoy this special interaction. La Jolla is home to the largest annual aggregation of leopard sharks in the world.

  • Jupiter Beach, Florida

Jupiter is known in the United States as the mecca of shark diving with its year-round warm, clear blue water, great wrecks, and reef dives. Its high-profile species such as tiger, hammerhead, and lemon sharks migrate through the area.

  • Cape Cod, Massachusetts

Cape Cod has long been known as a hotspot for sharks on the East Coast, and July is prime time for great whites to arrive. The app, Sharktivity, run by the Atlantic White Shark Conservancy, shows users the locations of white shark sightings to raise awareness of white sharks and promote the safety of citizens in the area.

  • Georgia Aquarium, Atlanta

Georgia Aquarium is a public aquarium in Atlanta, Georgia. It exhibits hundreds of species and thousands of animals across its seven major galleries. Journey with Gentle Giants is the only opportunity in the world where you are guaranteed to swim with whale sharks, manta rays, and more.
