Best places to dive with Blue shark
Prionace glauca
A slender, deep-blue oceanic shark that is the main draw of the Azores shark dives. Curious and unhurried, blue sharks approach divers closely on baited drift dives over offshore banks like Condor.
Destinations ranked by how reliably blue shark is seen. The bars show the likelihood by month — never a guarantee. See the full species page for more.

Dived on baited drift dives at Condor Bank, kept shallow (above ~15m). Curious and often close, but never guaranteed and weather-dependent.
