I wasn't sure if I wanted to do it, while my husband was super excited. As soon as the boat stopped, the violent side to side rocking began, and despite taking a Dramamine that morning, I found myself getting sick repeatedly (along with several other people - one of whom would get in the cage, get out and get sick, get back in the cage, repeat). But it was still cool to see the sharks up close from above the water. I had the exact same experience. I wasn't sure if I wanted to do it, while my husband was super excited.

An ironic combination for a traveler I suppose and could end up coming together in some twisted tragedy. Cage diving would be a good way to face one of my fears :) It's one of my travel goals since plane crashes and sharks are my two biggest fears.

I just came across your writing the other day and I'm loving it. On the theme of sharks I went cage diving with a company called White Shark Projects in SA recently and loved it.
