ANDROS HOMESITE
Divers (and snorkelers) can enjoy a thrill of a lifetime and at the same time educate themselves about some of the most misunderstood creatures in the ocean. This afternoon excursion allows divers to view sharks up closely, in their own habitat. At Small Hope Lodge, they have a shark experience, regularly scheduled. An average of a dozen sharks at a time show up for a frozen chum ball feed. The chum ball, composed of frozen fish parts, hangs suspended at about 40 feet in 60 feet of water. Divers kneel off to the side of the sandy bottom. Other than the free meal, to which they help themselves, the sharks are not interfered with or molested in any way. In addition, the scene attracts hundreds of crumb eaters--angel fish, grouper, snapper and more--gobbling up the leftovers. Divers (and snorkelers) have a chance to watch this whole scene unfold.
