Location: Gansbaai, South Africa

Dive site: Joubertsdam

Water temp: Moderate

Visibility: Moderate

Sightings: Bronze whaler sharks, African Penguins + Cape fur seal, Broadnose Sevengill shark 

Trip Summary:  After a couple of days with rain and swelly weather we were finally able to head back out at sea! We launched out of Kleinbaai harbor With a group of very excited divers and spectators of all ages. As soon as we anchored in the Shallows, our guests quickly got their wetsuits ready for the cage experience! We only had to wait a few short minutes before the first Bronze Whaler shark arrived in front of the cage! We all could enjoy great Bronze whaler shark activity on all our trips today and bonus sightings such as African penguins and A cheeky Cape fur seal. The guests in the second group were lucky enough to have the chance to admire not just one but two Sevengill sharks up close! They were really curious and came up to check out our divers. We would like to thank all our guests for joining us today! It was an incredible day!
