Diving with sharks is one of the most exciting experiences you can have in Sint Maarten. We’ve discovered the island’s premier spot to safely and responsibly encounter these magnificent creatures.

Explore the adventure, learn about the sharks, and secure your spot for this once-in-a-lifetime experience!

Among the stars of this underwater spectacle are the Caribbean reef sharks (Carcharhinus perezi), a species perfectly adapted to the vibrant coral ecosystems surrounding Sint Maarten. These sleek predators, typically reaching lengths of 6 to 10 feet, exhibit a streamlined morphology optimized for agile navigation through reef structures. As apex predators of their reef habitat, they play a critical role in maintaining the ecological balance, preying on weaker fish and thus supporting biodiversity. Contrary to popular misconception, Caribbean reef sharks are generally inquisitive rather than aggressive toward humans, displaying a cautious curiosity during encounters. Our dives offer a rare opportunity to observe their behavior—graceful sweeps of their caudal fins and subtle shifts in posture as they patrol their domain. This is a chance to witness evolution’s artistry up close in their pristine Caribbean home.
