Location: Gansbaai, South Africa

Dive site: Joubertsdam

Water temp: Low

Visibility: Low

Sightings: Bronze whaler sharks, Cape fur seal, Broadnose sevengill sharks.

Trip Summary: It was a cold start for our divers and spectators today! It did not take too long for the first Bronze Whaler shark to arrive for our first trip, but he was a shy one. We also had a quick look at a Short-tail stingray and a cape fur seal. For the second trip off the day, it was a waiting game. One Bronze Whaler shark came quickly but that was it. We also had the same Cape fur seal around hunting the Mullets. Our last trip were very lucky to see two female Broadnose sevengill sharks in the cage close up, that were very active!!!
