Hydro Attack Queenstown – Semi-Submersible Shark Ride

•  Departures & check-in: downtown lakefront kiosk / Lapsley Butson Wharf; allow ~35–45 mins total incl. briefing. 
• Weather: lake-condition dependent; may reschedule.

Now is the moment to scream into the shark machine. From our downtown Queenstown pier, We will take you on an exhilarating trip on the breathtaking Lake Wakatipu. 

As if you were in a stunt aircraft on the water, relax in the cockpit and prepare to feel the g-forces as our skilled pilot delivers you an unforgettable experience. 

Looking through the F-16 fighter quality glass of the semi-submersible shark, the sky will vanish as the pilot falls into a deep dive beneath the sea, only to eventually burst the surface and unleash the whole 6-meter shark into the air. 

We can roll on a 90? Angle, do tight doughnut spins, and attain peak speeds of 80 kph on water and 40 kph when diving underwater.
Each shark accommodates a single person, so journeys are private with our pilot. Thus, just one question remains. Undoubtedly, riding in a Hydro Attack shark raises the pulse rate.

The Bare Facts:

• You’re inside what feels like a cross between a fighter jet and a torpedo.
• It’s skimming across the top of Lake Wakatipu… At 80kph.
• Yeah, you read it right – 80 scenery-blurring, perspective-destroying mind-numbing kilometres per hour… then it dives under the water.
• And seconds later the pilot points it at the sky and it blasts back out again, into five metres of fresh air before shattering the lake into a million crystal shards on a screaming re-entry.
• Whatever else you’ve done in the name of extreme excitement, nothing will prepare you for this adrenaline packed adventure.
