Location: Gansbaai, South Africa

Dive site: Joubertsdam

Water temp: Moderate

Visibility: Moderate

Sightings: Bronze Whaler sharks, Cape fur seal, Humpback dolphins, Short-tail Stingrays

Summary: What an amazing start to the day! We were up bright and early for our first dive, and the morning couldn’t have been more beautiful. Calm sea, a light breeze, and the sun rising over the bay. Not long after we reached the dive site, the Bronze whaler sharks showed up, and our divers quickly got suited up and ready to step in to the cage! And the wildlife sightings didn’t stop there, we were lucky enough to spot Indian Ocean humpback dolphins feeding in the chum slick, two short-tail stingrays, and even a playful Cape fur seal! Huge thanks to everyone who joined us today.
