Sightings: Bronze Whaler sharks, Cape fur seals, African penguins, Common dolphins + Short-tail stingray

Summary: The ocean provided us with incredible encounters on today’s trip! Launching from Kleinbaai harbour, calm seas awaited us, as well as an abundance of wildlife. Before even reaching our dive site, multiple species were sighted feeding on bait ball action in the bay, including common dolphins, African penguins and Cape fur seals. At the dive site, guests were soon in wetsuits and ready to enjoy warmer waters with Bronze whaler sharks. Many individuals offered up close sightings, as well as the Short-tail stingray coming in for a visit. Overall, a successful day on the water, thank you to everyone who joined us today!
