Press Release Summary: Traditional gift ideas can seem a little flat. Put some \"Real Adventure\" under the tree this year.
Press Release Body: This upcoming holiday season put some excitement under the tree. Americans will be gifting novelty ties and slippers again this year in unprecedented numbers, more often than not these traditional gift items end up in the closet.
Instead, consider giving a gift that will be remembered forever, your own "Shark Week" dive adventure. Since 2002 Shark Diver has been thrilling shark fans from all over the planet with "Safe and Sane" shark encounters with the world's top shark species.
Divers and non divers seeking out the grand daddy of shark diving, the Great White, can join the Shark Diver crew in San Diego, California from August through November aboard two of the top shark diving vessels in the industry. In March Shark Diver continues these exciting adventures with Tiger Shark encounters out of sunny Freeport, Bahamas.
"It's all about providing a once in a lifetime personal experience for our clients", says Luke Tipple, onboard dive operations manager for Shark Diver. "About 20% of our divers are booked as the ultimate gift by spouses and family members, these family members end of having the time of their lives".
Gifting adventure travel has increased dramatically since 2003. According to The Adventure Travel Report "one-half of U.S. adults, or 98 million people, have taken an adventure trip in the past five years. This includes 31 million adults who engaged in hard adventure activities like whitewater rafting, scuba diving and mountain biking".
For family members gifting the ultimate shark diving adventure this Christmas, Shark Diver offers an additional bonus with a free iPod Nano to go along with your best holiday wishes.
