摘要

Port Lincoln, South Australia is the departure port for the only white shark, Carcharodon carcharias, cage diveindustry in Australia. Established in the early 1960’s as a niche tourism venture, the industry has recently undergone arapid expansion to accommodate greater passenger numbers, more tourism operators, and additional infrastructure aimedat capturing a greater proportion of the tourist dollar. However, to date, there has been no assessment of growth in the industry.We have used the operator logbook system, introduced in 2000, as the basis for a rapid assessment of the maturityas well as a conservative estimate of the economic value of the industry, with a focus on 2011. From the logbook systemthe number of days on-site has increased from an average of 67 days per year prior to 2007 to 287 days on-site in 2011. In2011 the industry accommodated approximately 5200 passengers with a direct domestic expenditure estimated to be inexcess of 6 million AUD. Changes in shark behaviour have been observed following the increase in days on-site. Thewhite shark cage dive industry has reached a stage in its development where increased management is required in order toensure a viable industry into the future. The rapid assessment technique described herein will allow managers to trackchanges in cage dive participation rates and quickly respond to changes in the industry.
