Location: Gansbaai, South Africa

Dive site: Joubertsdam

Water temp: Moderate

Visibility: Moderate

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

Summary: What an amazing day we had here at Marine Dynamics. We welcomed our divers aboard and headed straight toward our dive side, the Shallows. Once anchored, we wasted no time and got dressed and ready. The wetsuits were not even fully on just yet, but the first Bronze whaler sharks started to come in. Throughout the trips we had constant presence of our beloved sharks. Both trips got a visit of a curios Cape fur seal stealing the show in the background. Our second trip was even lucky enough to get some incredible close up looks at a Short-tail stingray cruising up and down passing the cage multiple times! Once again, thanks everyone for joining our Shark cage diving adventure.
