Shark Shield is the world leader in electronic shark deterrent technology. Our electronic shark defense system is the only scientifically tested and proven protection against a shark attack. Shark Shield is a pioneer in shark deterrents having been involved for over twenty years in the development of electronic shark deterrents to help protect against shark attacks. Working closely with Zulu Natal Shark Board with the Shark POD, Shark Shield then developed the successful FREEDOM4 and a few years ago introduced the FREEDOM7, SURF7 and SCUBA7.
The Shark Shield SCUBA7 and FREEDOM7 have become a critical part of professional scuba diving equipment. Whether you’re a scuba diver, spearfishing, snorkelling, surfing or kayak fishing, Shark Shield can help protect you from a shark attack. Surfers rely on the Shark Shield SURF7, it enables them to relax and concentrate on surfing. Predatory sharks such as great white sharks, tiger sharks, bull sharks and mako sharks to name a few, all have short range sensitive electrical receptors known as Ampullae of Lorenzini. The Shark Shield electronic shark deterrent technology creates a non-damaging but uncontrollable muscular spasm causing the shark to flee the area assisting to avoid the risk of shark attack.
PROVEN ELECTRONIC SHARK DEFENSE SYSTEM
The Shark Shield FREEDOM7, SURF7 and SCUBA7 electronic shark defense systems have been used and tested by professional divers the world over with many testimonials to support the scientific data. Shark Shield is used by the likes of the US Navy, US Coast Guard and various Special Forces around the world to protect against a shark attack. Shark Shield is a scientifically proven electronic shark deterrent offering real protection against shark attacks.
While extensive testing has been done and great care taken to develop and manufacture the Shark Shield range of products, it is impossible to guarantee that all sharks will be deterred under all circumstances.
