predator tank

• 16 comments •


The highlight of the Two Oceans Aquarium, in Cape Town, is the 'predator tank'. Not only does the tank feature great white sharks, turtles, rays, and a variety of large fish, but you can also dive in the tank and swim with sharks! Because you need to be PADI certified to dive, we couldn't do it. There was no dive scheduled the day we went either, but it also meant the viewing area was less congested.

The tank features a glass-domed hallway which allows you to view the animals as they swim right over your head!

    HOLY CRAP. I dunno if I could handle that. We just got the "Blue Planet" DVDs and I'm worried those are going to give me perma-nightmares, but seeing that shit close up and in person...

    Seriously, I think everything that lives underwater is about 9,000 times more terrifying than anything else in the history of history.

    I love aquariums! Great pics of the sharks...they're such amazing creatures. I swam with Great Whites when I was in SA--one of the coolest experiences EVER.

    PS Looove your flowers in your hair. :)

    great fun. I bought an old boyfriend a dive in the shark tank at AQUA here in Perth one year, he loved it.

    When my 2 girls are older, we are planning a South African jaunt to CT and safari in Jo'burg! Thanks for giving us a taste of the country, since we probably won't get there until a few years from now!
