Location: Gansbaai, South Africa

Dive site: Joubertsdam

Water temp: Moderate

Visibility: Moderate

Sightings: Bronze whaler sharks, Short-tail stingray, Cape fur seal + Southern Right whales

Trip Summary: An early morning launch to kick us off after a day of rough weather. Welcomed back with sunshine and calm seas, the Bronze whaler sharks stole the show. Cooler water temperatures awaited divers, however the increasingly improving shark activity made up for it. Both trips had activity from multiple individuals, with the second also lucky enough to sight the Short-tail stingrays. Returning to the harbour, the seasonally visiting Southern Right whales welcomed the last trip of the day back to the harbour, concluding a successful day on the water!
