A bit of a sleep in for the staff and guests of Marine Dynamics today with later launches due to conditions and tides. Once out on the water it didn’t take the sharks long to show up, the Copper sharks that is. The Copper sharks over the last few weeks have become a familiar sight in this area and whilst the Great Whites have been very elusive the Coppers have allowed our guests a shark experience and quite an exciting one at that. The behaviour of this species around the boat is amazing as they move about together and make such close passes by the cage with usually consistent activity. The Short-tailed stingrays graced us with their presence as well this morning before the group headed by Geyser Rock to see the Cape Fur seals.
The second trip of the day launched with the tide rising high enough for us to make a smooth exit from Kleinbaai harbour. Much like the first trip the Copper sharks appeared quickly, and our guests took the plunge into the lovely Atlantic waters. The sharks stuck around for the entire afternoon and the Short-tailed stingrays come and went throughout making for a successful bronze experience out on the water for Marine Dynamics.
