Martinique – Diving with sharks
Although various shark species can be found in the waters around Martinique – including reef sharks, nurse sharks, and even hammerheads – they are only very rarely spotted during dives. So far, there is no known dive center on the island that specifically offers shark dives; most operations focus on reefs, wrecks, turtles, and other marine life that is easier to observe.
