Plongée à Guadalupe Island — Mexico
Guadalupe Island offers the world's best great white shark cage diving — the Pacific's crystal-clear water (30m+ visibility) puts South Africa and Australia to shame. Great whites congregate from August to November, drawn by the island's Guadalupe fur seal colony. It's a 20-hour liveaboard trip from Ensenada but the encounters are breathtaking.
