Location: Gansbaai, South Africa

Dive site: Joubertsdam

Water temp: Moderate

Visibility: Moderate

Sightings: Bronze whaler sharks, Cape fur seals

Trip Summary: Both of today’s trips delivered absolutely incredible Bronze Whaler shark activity from almost the moment we arrived at our dive site right through to the end of each trip! We were treated to the sight of large adult female Bronze Whalers confidently circling the boat and coming incredibly close to our divers in the cage! Our spectators weren’t left out either! With sharks cruising around the boat, everyone on deck had fantastic opportunities to enjoy these magnificent animals from above. And the wildlife show didn’t stop there! We also had Cape fur seals actively hunting nearby, adding even more excitement to an already spectacular day on the water.A huge thank you to all of our amazing guests who joined us out at sea today!
