Location: Gansbaai, South Africa

Dive Site: Joubertsdam

Water temp: Moderate

Visibility: Poor

Sightings: Broadnose sevengill shark, Bronze whaler sharks, Humpback dolphins + Cape fur seals

Summary: Our first trip left Kleinbaai Harbour, with a short boat ride to the dive site. Unfortunately, the first trip did not strike luck with shark viewings, but some brave guests still took the opportunity to get into the cage. A visit to Dyer Island and Geyser Rock allowed the opportunity to view the large Cape fur seal colony and endangered African penguins. As they headed back inland, guests were surprised by the beautiful Indian Ocean Humpback dolphins. The second trip were lucky enough to view a Broadnose sevengill shark and Bronze whaler sharks during their trip, a happy sight for guests and crew alike! Thank to all who joined us today, it was a pleasure having you on board!
