Shark Cage Diving

Located in Port Lincoln, South Australia, it is the only place you can cage dive with Great White Sharks in Australia.

Calypso Star Charters is fully licensed by the Department of Environment and Water and is privileged to be the only one-day shark cage diving operator who is permitted to use natural fish berley to attract the Great White Sharks to our boat at the Neptune Islands Marine Park.

Being permitted to berley provides you with the best possible chance of a shark sightings and productive interaction close to our vessel and cage resulting in a memorable encounter and wonderful photographic opportunities. 

Along with this license, we are proud to be Advanced Eco Certified and our Captains’ are Eco Certified Guides, Carbon Neutral and a Climate Action Leader.  Receiving this certification provides us with the recognition that we conduct our operations in a way that are environmentally conscious and sustainable whilst also providing an educational component.

Our most Frequent Asked Question is -

When is the best time to come and dive with the sharks?

As we are dealing with a nomadic creature in its natural environment, we cannot suggest when would be the best time to join us as each year can be different. Please use our sightings to help you decide on the best time to come.  We provide this information to be open and honest with all our guests to help you make an informed decision.
