Location: Gansbaai, South Africa

Dive site: Joubertsdam

Water temp: Moderate

Visibility: Moderate

Sightings: Bronze Whaler sharks, Short-tail stingray, Broadnose sevengill shark

Trip Summary: The sun is out, the Bay is calm, and our divers are excited! Heading out to sea in such amazing conditions is always a huge plus for our divers and crew. Our recent daily visitors could not wait for our arrival and approached us almost immediately.  Our divers got into the cage and the fun began. The Bronze Whaler Sharks came in close giving our divers an amazing time! A Short-tail stingray appeared once again around the cage and as usual amazed all of us! To make sure we didn’t miss anything, divers on the second trip were lucky enough to also see a very curious Broadnose Sevengill shark. Sure all our divers came out of the cage with big smiles on their faces. Thank you so much to everyone who dove in with us today!
