This was a very well organized, smoothly run operation. The crew and the "Solmar V" are spectacular. The white sharks were numerous
and cooperative and the "Deep Cage" dives were a new perspective for photography and study of behavior. Keep up the great work Lawrence.
Stay safe and Good Diving!

Many Thanks to a Great crew. Great operation and experience. This trip would be considered a trip of a lifetime for both old and young.
Capt. Wayne Hasson - Aggressor Fleet, Naples, FL
Thank you for helping realize another of our dreams!! Congrats to you Lawrence for your vision and hard work - to put together
such a top notch operation - and as well to entire crew of the Solmar V. And special thanks to the sharks - we have a greater appreciation now!
Debbie and Kent B. - Miami Shores, FL
Amazing adventure, fantastic service from the Captain and crew and every courtesy from the Dive masters. Well managed and organized
from start to finish. Close encounters with Great White Sharks was the thrill of a lifetime and a photographers dream. Most of all, the
conservation efforts being made here will help ensure the survival of this most awesome predator.
Stephen McCulloch - Marine Mammal Research, Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institute
I got more good pictures of white sharks in my first 3 hours than in 3 trips to other locations! very well organized & professionally run.
All equipment superbly suited for the job at hand.
Doug Perrine - Kona, HI
Been on multiple diving trips and you and your team deserve 5 stars out of 5. Your emphasis on quality, safety,
education is impressive, but most of all you make an adventure fun. Getting great video and photos of White sharks is
rewarding, but the most rewarding part is when you're underwater and you run out of film... and all you can do is just
put the camera down and watch in amazement the majesty of those amazing creatures.
Brent M. - Chatanooga, TN
First and Foremost, I'd like to say thanks to Mother Nature and the Sea Gods for the great conditions to witness those magnificent
Great Whites! But, more importantly a profound appreciation for Lawrence Groth and Scott Davis and their dedicated efforts not only
to show these spectacular animals to us - But also their respect for the animals - High Regards.
Nick C. - Baltimore. MD
I can't believe how nervous I was when I booked this trip. The fear disappeared as soon as we got in the water!! Amazing!
The submersible cage was my favorite part. Lawrence thank you... and of course we couldn't have had a finer crew & group to
dive with. I will rave to all.
Virginia H. - Los Angeles, CA
Seeing our first Great White Shark was an experience that we will treasure for the rest of our lives. We could not have hoped
for a better guide and crew to help us realise our dream. Thank you for your efforts & see you next time.
Stephanie and Murray B. - Surrey, England
I can't figure out how to explain this experience to the folks back home. I'm not sure it is possible. Great crew, amazingly knowledgeable
captain, and epic sharks! Tons of em. I can't imagine a better spot to propose to my girl than down in the cage with Bullet!
Marcus J. - Sausalito, CA
This trip will change the way we look at future vacations. Much- much better than just sitting around a resort. Our friends will
keel over when we show them the video. Galapagos here we come!
Nick and Sara A. - Phoenix, AZ

I could fill several pages with comments about how great this trip was and how incredible it was to see Great Whites up close,
but to keep it simple I'll just say everything from the crew, the diving, the fun, etc, was simply AMAZING!! Thanks!!
Christopher Y. Breckenridge - Colorado
The Best part of the trip is seeing the look on the people's faces when they see the great white for the first time. For me it's
always breathtaking! Thanks, Lawrence. You always deliver. 3rd time's a charm - let's go for 4!!!!
