Location: Gansbaai, South Africa

Dive site: Joubertsdam

Water temp: Moderate

Visibility: Moderate

Sightings: Bronze whaler sharks & Cape fur seal

Trip Summary: An afternoon launch from Kleinbaai harbour, with clients already geared up in their wetsuits due to some drizzle. At the dive site, we did not have to wait long before the Bronze whaler sharks were in front of the cage and ready to welcome our guests into the water. Visibility was still decent, and large females ensured that guests had up close sightings. As well as the sharks, Cape fur seals were active around the cage and predating on silver fish and some shysharks. A successful trip overall, thank you to all that joined us!
