Location: Joubertsdam
Water Temperature: 15.1°C
Depth: 9.2m
Visibility: 1.0
Number of Sharks: 3
Conditions: Beautiful sunrise trip with a gradual wind increase through the morning

After a lovely sunrise on the way out to the shallows this morning, it wasn’t too long before our first shark appeared! The small 2.9m female we saw on yesterday afternoons trip as well as the large 4m female. We were also very briefly joined by Scarlett this morning, along with a single pass from a bronze whaler and a stingray! Our cage divers were treated to some extremely graceful passes from all three sharks today, as it seemed like Monday morning is the time they’re just chillin!

Another elasmobranch filled morning, which should keep us ticking over for the next couple of days, as the weather comes in. Hopefully we get out to sea again towards the end of the week, and maybe we get to encounter some more new arrivals into the bay!

If you are looking to get up close and personal with the great white shark then Shark Diving in South Africa, and more specifically with Marine Dynamics, is a once-in-a-lifetime experience you won’t want to miss. Book and pay online with us and get a free video of your encounter with the world’s apex predator.
