Location: Gansbaai, South Africa

Dive site: Joubertsdam

Water temp: Warm

Visibility: Moderate

Sightings: Bronze whaler sharks, African penguin

Summary: Despite choppier conditions on the water today, both trips were treated with an abundance of beautiful Bronze whaler sharks! Their schooling behaviour meant guests in the cage and on the boat were able to see multiple individuals at a time throughout the trip. The first boat were also lucky enough to spot 2 juvenile African penguins just before leaving anchor, a special sighting of South Africa’s only penguin species! Thank you to all who joined us today, we loved having you all on board!
