GLASS BOTTOM BOAT TO SHARK JUNCTION

Observe sharks and other marine life from the comfort of a glass-bottom boat while cruising over several coral reefs. The 56-foot-long boat features large viewing windows to offer clear, unobstructed views of the underwater wonders. The first stop will be a barrier reef that is typically teeming with brightly colored tropical fish darting in and out of the coral. The spectacle should be even more spectacular at the next coral reef, a spot with so many marine creatures that it is nicknamed the Fish Farm. After witnessing the ever-changing parade of marine life there, you will soon reach Shark Junction, an area that dozens of nurse sharks usually frequent, some of them up to 8 feet long. Chances are, they will congregate around the boat because they have been hand-fed for years. As you will see while watching an expert shark feeder, nurse sharks use suction to quickly vacuum up their food.
