Location: Gansbaai, South Africa

Dive site: Joubertsdam

Water temp: Moderate

Visibility: Good

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

Summary: Fantastic day to be out at sea! Even though the summer decided to hold on and it was a bit drizzly and wet all day, that did not dampen (haha!) the mood or our experience. As soon as we got to our dive location we realised that the visibility is on our side and the sharks were ready to “play”. We had some absolutely incredible activity from the Bronze Whaler sharks with some quite large individuals giving us a visit, both females and males. Most of our guests were very lucky to witness a gorgeous Short-tail stingray passing by just in front of the cage, and even a few Cape Fur seals checking us out.  Some of us brought their luck to the limit and we even managed to spot a Southern Right whale in the bay!
