Location: Gansbaai, South Africa

Dive site: Joubertsdam

Water temp: Moderate

Visibility: Poor

Sightings: Bronze Whaler sharks, Short-tail Stingray + Cape fur seal

Summary: After a full day landbound due to weather, we were finally back out on the water! It was a bright and early start as our first guests arrived at the Great White House. We launched from Kleinbaai Harbour in a moderate south-easterly wind and swell, and after a short ride we reached our dive site, The Shallows. The waiting time was brief before our first Bronze Whaler appeared, allowing our first divers to enter the water. The activity was incredible from start to finish, including an encounter with a well known Short-tail stingray and even a hunting Cape fur seal. A big thank you to all our divers for joining the Marine Dynamics team today!
