Tiger Beach Diving

Bahamas Liveaboard Shark Diving

DISCOVER THE WORLD FAMOUS ‘TIGER BEACH’

Tiger Beach has been continuously rated as one of the greatest shark diving locations, not only in the Bahamas, but in the world! Experience the thrill of up-close, cage-free, encounters with some of the most iconic large shark species – tiger sharks, great hammerheads, oceanic white-tip sharks, lemon sharks, and more!

Our trips depart from West Palm Beach, Florida, and cruise over to Tiger Beach – a shallow sand flat located just north of Grand Bahama Island (see our map below!). Divers soon find themselves immersed in a world of crystal-blue water surrounded by vibrantly colored, healthy, reefs and an abundance of large sharks.

We are the only live aboard dive vessel that allows unlimited (We don’t schedule or count your dives) diving, provides nitrox and does night dives every night. We have the fewest number of guests on board (10 maximum) to insure your shark experience is the very best it can be. In addition you will learn how best to interact with a large number of large predatory sharks by the pioneer in large predatory cageless encounters with the legendary Jim Abernethy Shark Briefing, utilizing 4 decades of large shark experience!

To schedule your Tiger Beach Liveaboard Dive Trip, you can book via email, give the shop a call to talk to one of us in person, or book directly through our online calendar below. Whichever way, we look forward to hearing from you!

See The Affectionate Side of Sharks

For nearly four decades, Jim Abernethy has specialized in large predatory shark diving, always without a cage. These experiences have provided Jim with the knowledge of how to interact with groups of large sharks, safely. In 2002, Jim discovered the affectionate side of sharks while removing a hook from the jaw of a tiger shark. This has since revolutionized diving at Tiger Beach as the only place on earth to witness this behavior. In turn, Jim has passed this knowledge onto his crew to teach divers how to make friends with sharks using affection, rather than food. Divers will have the opportunity to witness Jim’s crew interact with tiger sharks, great hammerheads, and lemon sharks using Jim’s techniques for affection.

Incredible Photo Opportunites

One of the primary goals during our dive trips is to assist you in capturing breathtaking imagery and video footage. Jim Abernethy is an internationally-acclaimed photographer and cinematographer who has devoted his life to sharing the true nature of these sharks with the world. Onboard the Shearwater, our crew utilize photography strategies and locations acquired through Jim’s decades of experience. Jim hopes that the imagery you capture will become a driving force in the conservation of these beautiful animals.

The Most Intimate Shark Encounters

The best wildlife interactions at Tiger Beach always occur with the fewest number of people in the water. For this reason, we limit our charters to 10 divers per trip. We also stagger our divers entering the water during the first dive of the day, with two groups of five divers entering the water at separate times. This creates a pattern that carries on throughout the day, allowing you to dive with fewer people on each dive, and allows for you to get back in the water as soon as your tanks are refilled by our staff waiting on the dive deck! This ensures that our guests have an incredible experience, both above and below the water.
