Location: Gansbaai, South Africa

Dive site: Joubertsdam

Water temp: Cold

Visibility: Good

Sightings: Bronze whaler sharks, African penguins, Cape fur seal

Trip Summary: What an amazing way to round off 2023! We were blessed with beautiful Bronze whaler activity for all trips, making the early rise for our divers well worth it! The slight drizzle did not take away from the beautiful visibility, allowing guests in the cage and on the boat to have a fantastic view of the shark activity! While traveling to the dive site, we were lucky enough to see large rafts of the endangered African penguin, a bonus sighting to wrap up the last cage dive for the year. To everyone who joined us today, thank you so much and we hope you have a fantastic New Year!
