Tiger
Sharks Photographic Tour
20th February to 1st March 2009
This week runs in conjunction with the Ultimate Shark Tour, and can be taken individually
or as a two week package



Aliwal
Shoals on the East Coast of South Africa some 25 miles south of Durban is
known as one of the top 3 dive destinations in this beautiful country.
Limited to
6 participants plus Tony. It is here that Mark Addison owner of Blue
Wilderness Diving has become the only successful dive operator to attract
in the awesome Tiger Shark. Where in conjunction with an ongoing research
and tagging programme with Durban University, he offers selected divers/underwater
photographers the opportunity to dive and photograph these beautiful creatures.
Flexibility is the word for this year, not only will we be diving with Tiger
sharks but one day will be spent at nearby Protea banks where we can expect
to witness Zambezi and Raggie Toothed sharks. As and when the opportunity
presents itself we will also be diving selected sites on Aliwal shoal itself
to witness some of the stunning variety of marine animals, flora and fauna
this world renowned site has to offer.
This is Tony’s 4nd year to this venue and sixth working with Mark on
various projects.
Mark has built an enviable reputation for delivering the goods. Working with
world renowned film companies such as National Geographic, The BBC Wildlife
Crew, and world renowned stills photographer Doug Perrine.
Describing it as “the highlight of his 2006 diving calendar” Tony
quoted to get up close and personal with this awesome creature has to be the
ultimate goal of every underwater photographer/diver.
