The warm water ejection at Hadera`s power plant attracts dozens of Dusky and Snadbar sharks, each year, in growing numbers, between November and March.
It is a unique phenomenon being investigated by the Morris-Kahn Marine Research Station in Haifa University.
The dive is both unique and challenging. A combination of elaborate conditions and powerful breath taking nature.
