Trip 1
The stunning sunrise made a beautiful start to the day in Kleinbaai harbour. Within thirty minutes of the boat anchoring, our first shark arrived. The clients were lucky enough to see a wonderful 2.6 metre shark recently tagged by the Dyer Island Conservation Trust. Scarlett, a graceful 4.0 metre female also greeted us and wowed both clients and crew with her incredible behaviour around the cage. A 4.1 metre shark known as Trippster also payed us a visit and amazed clients with its size and activity. We also saw an enormous Short-tail stingray which is one of the largest in the ray family and can grow up to 2.0 metres.
Trip 2
The second trip of the day launched with perfect conditions, little swell and a light breeze. The first shark arrived within minutes of the boat anchoring and was a recently adopted shark known as “ASHNN”. The largest shark to visit us was Scarlett, our 4.0 metre female, who amazed the clients with her behaviour and size. The boat was also visited by two large short- tail stingrays.
Trip 3
The final trip of the day was greeted by a shark within ten minutes of anchoring. This was an awesome 4.0 metre shark known as Meredith. The second shark to arrive was yet again Scarlett, our 4.0 metre female. Scarlett stunned our clients with her incredible behaviour and stayed for the duration of the trip. The boat was also visited by two recently adopted sharks known as “ASHNN” and “Sarko”. A short-tail stingray again made an appearance towards the end of our trip.
An absolutely brilliant day with amazing sharks!
