Dive site: Joubertsdam

Water temp: Moderate

Visibility: Poor

Sightings: Great white shark, Bronze whaler sharks, Short-tail stingray, Cape Fur Seal

Trip Summary: We all woke up to some unexpected rain today! Luckily this did not bother our divers and spectators, who was super excited to head out and experience the shark cage dive activity! As soon as we anchored in “the Shallows” our guests spotted the first shark! A female Bronze whaler. After a few minutes a short-tail stingray appeared in front of the cage and impressed our guests with her size! Halfway thoughout the trip – there she was! The same female Great white shark that we have seen for the last few days made a quick turn getting the adrenaline pumping! she came by a few times letting all on board spot the difference and her beauty!
