Hammerheads from shore?

[Drvngcrzy]

I would love to see hammerhead sharks but my wife does not want to do a liveaboard. She recently got sick due to rough seas and now does not want to consider staying on a boat. Are there any good options to see hammerheads without being on a liveaboard? Trip would be between mMarch and September 2016.

I'm not sure about Cove's but I suppose it's possible one could wander by:

There are currently four sites where we dive with the sharks....At either location encounter a gathering of Caribbean Reef Sharks on a consistent basis.

Bahama Divers also on Nassau used to specifically mention Hammerheads at the Lost Blue Hole dive they do. It's part of their dive schedule.
Since they re-did their website it's disappeared but worth a call - maybe they just left it off or maybe the sharks have moved on.

Galapagos land based diving out of Puerto Ayora.

This option is not marketed to North Americans because the liveaboard advertising drowns it out. You can do the Galloping Pogos for about 1/3 the cost of your buddies at the local dive shop. You will see exactly the same stuff, I've done it many times, both ways.

Plus, you get to eat in a different restaurant every night, you can walk around town and into the Darwin Research Station every evening, and, here's the big one... your bed doesn't rock.
