Jessica Watson heads back to the Oceanworld to go diving with the sharks at Manly
After spending 210 days at sea dodging waves while navigating some of the world's most challenging oceans, Aussie sailing hero Jessica Watson has now dipped beneath them - with sharks!
As a special birthday gift from her management team, Jessica, fellow sailor Brit Mike Perham, Jessica’s brother and cousin came along to Shark Dive Xtreme at Oceanworld Manly for an audience with three metre sharks. During their dive Jessica and Mike encountered huge rays, turtles and hundreds of fish, as well as the iconic Grey Nurse Sharks.
Jessica, who plans to spend the next few weeks unwinding and recovering from her mammoth globetrot, clearly enjoyed her dive, writing in the guest book: "Really really cool! Great fun and a good challenge!".
Shark Dive Xtreme is one of the world's only guaranteed shark diving experiences. With no cages, it's a true adrenalin rush and makes the perfect gift for thrill-seekers and animal lovers alike.
