Location: Gansbaai, South Africa

Dive site: Joubertsdam

Water temp: Cold

Visibility: Poor

Sightings: Bronze whaler sharks, Short-tail stingray, Cape fur seal, Sunfish + Bottlenose dolphins

Summary: With calm conditions, our vessel Slashfin ventured out towards our dive site where we were soon able to catch our first sightings of the Bronze whaler shark! Through the trip, shark activity increased, soon accompanied by a Short-tail stingray. Splashes in the distance then revealed a pod of Bottlenose dolphins, swimming past on anchor! On our journey back we were able to catch up with the dolphins allowing guests an up-close encounter with these marine mammals, as well as the largest bony fish, a Sunfish! All in all, a successful trip for both our guests and crew. Thank you all for joining Marine Dynamics today!
