Location: Gansbaai, South Africa

Dive site: Joubertsdam

Water temp: Moderate

Visibility: Good

Sightings: Bronze whaler sharks, Short-tail stingrays, African Penguins, Humpback Dolphins + Cape fur seal

Summary: We launched from Kleinbaai Harbour in stunning, warm conditions. On our way to the final dive site, we hugged the coast in hopes of spotting humpback dolphins, and we were lucky enough to succeed! After spending a few magical minutes admiring these beautiful animals, we continued on to find the perfect anchoring spot for the day. As soon as we arrived, our guests eagerly suited up in their wetsuits, and before long, Bronze whaler sharks appeared. Divers were treated to incredible close encounters along with improved visibility. We were also visited by a playful Cape fur seal and a short-tail stingray, adding even more excitement to the dive. On the journey back to the harbour, we were delighted to spot a raft of critically endangered African penguins. A huge thank you to all our amazing guests for joining us on such a memorable day!
