"Massive Great Whites close enough to touch!"
Ready to see a Great White Shark face to face?
Islander Charters has been delivering world class Great White Shark cage diving since 2004. We offer 5 day all-inclusive trips to Guadalupe Island, Mexico – the mecca for Great White Sharks. We are a family owned American company and every trip departs from/returns to San Diego, California.
All boats must clear customs with authorities in Ensenada, Mexico when going to and from Guadalupe Island. On every trip, without exception. Although the Islander is an American flagged vessel and can board our passengers in the U.S., we choose to depart from Ensenada. This saves our passengers 20+ hours of additional ocean travel when compared to boarding the boat at our home dock in San Diego.
We are the only business shark diving at Guadalupe Island to receive a special recognition award from CONANP in conjunction with SEMARNAT, PROCER, and Reserva de la Biosfera Isla Guadalupe, achieving 100% in all qualifying categories.
Not only is our U.S. crew the most experienced dive operators at Guadalupe Island, they are all federally licensed and participate in the U.S. Coast Guard’s random drug testing program.
