Location: Joubertsdam

Temperature: 15.1°C + 15.0°C

Depth: 8m + 8m

Visibility:  1m + 1m 

Conditions: Slightly overcast, with wind picking up in the afternoon. 

This morning we headed out onto sea very early. While dark clouds were gathering on the horizon, the sea was still flat as we headed towards our dive site. Once we arrived, our divers jumped into their wetsuits and it wasn’t long for the first sharks to arrive. Our divers were thrilled by the sight of the Copper sharks around the boat. And a Cape fur seal briefly popped his head up for a view before disappearing into the water depths. Overall a great morning to be out at sea. 

For our second trip we headed back to our regular dive spot, and soon the Copper sharks arrived as well. Our divers quickly jumped into the cage, and were thrilled by the sharks coming so incredibly close. We were briefly visited by a Sevengill shark, who briefly appeared near our cage, before disappearing in the deep. Towards the end of the trip the wind slowly started to pick up. However, this did not deter our divers from having a great time on the boat.
