Location: Gansbaai, South Africa

Dive site: Joubertsdam

Water temp: Moderate

Visibility: Moderate

Sightings: Bronze whaler sharks + Cape fur seal

Daily Summary: Some beautiful conditions greeted us in the bay today along with some fantastic shark activity. We had only just come onto anchor when our first Bronze whaler shark appeared and within moments we had multiple individuals around. Throughout the trip the activity was consistent and we enjoyed some amazing views from above and under the water of these sharks. By the end of the trip, we had 8 different Bronze whalers sharks visit, six females and two males to round out the bunch, all of which were adults including an estimated 3.2m female. We also had a small Cape fur seal join us for the start of the trip darting around the sharks as it hunted breakfast in the shallow waters of the bay.
A big thank you to all our guests that joined the Marine Dynamics team. We hope you enjoyed your shark cage diving experience.
