12 - 21 October 2013

The whale sharks found in Cenderawasih Bay are the new National Treasures of Indonesia – occuring nowhere else in the world in such conditions, whale sharks are predictably found in this bay. Babies, young adults and breeding females all in one location and all at the same time. These sharks are supposedly residents of the bay and are very tame, allowing people to swim in close proximity while they consume fishes from the fishing pontoons.

In conjunction with Ocean Geographic’s SOS’s projects, only one expedition is planned for Cenderawasih Bay in 2013. Join us for this unique opportunity to swim with some of the world's most magnificent creatures.
