Jim Abernathy's Scuba Adventures offers shark trips; here's a link to a schedule that has prices near the top.
I suggest 'growing into' shark encounters a bit. For me, that meant seeing nurse sharks and reef sharks in Key Largo, later a black-tip shark in Jupiter, Florida, a shark feed dive with a 5 - 6 foot reef shark in Belize, and a recent trip wreck diving with the sand tiger sharks out of Morehead City, North Carolina, where fairly big spooky looking sharks pretty calmly hang out & are in close quarters without using bait or feeding.
I'd like to dive cageless with tiger sharks someday, but I'm working my way slowly in that direction. Plus cost is a factor. Tiger shark live-aboard trips tend to clear $3,000 apiece not counting airfare.
My point is, think before you get yourself in the water with a big hammerhead, tiger, etc... If you've been around plenty of sharks and have a strong comfort level, cool.
