Scuba Diving With BIG BULL SHARK MAMAS 🦈 in Playa del Carmen, Mexico

Diving with bull sharks – just a few hundred meters off Playa del Carmen’s coast 🦈💦. Initially, this wasn’t our plan. Most diving operators around here feed the sharks during the dive, which means that you’re basically sitting on the ocean floor watching sharks being fed fish (by someone in a chain mail) 🐟⛓. Obviously, you get very close to the animals, but little is known about how regular feedings affect the shark’s behavior longterm 🤔.

But there are operators, like Elite Divers International, that offer dives without feeding. And that’s when you get to observe these impressive animals behaving naturally, curiously circling you. And off we went 🤗!
