Sightings: Bronze whaler sharks, Short-tail stingray, African Penguins

Summary: Another day on the water, another epic adventure! We launched from Gansbaai Harbour today and after only a few minutes on the water, we had our first sightings of the day. Our guests had the chance to see a raft of the critically endangered African penguins in the bay. Once at the dive site, we were all ready to see the beautiful Bronze whaler sharks and after 5 minutes, the first individuals appeared. With individuals of every size, all our divers were able to see the sharks in top form. We also had the chance to spot a majestic Short-tail stingray. Thank you to everyone who joined us today, it was a pleasure having you on board.
