Location: Gansbaai, South Africa

Dive site: Joubertsdam

Water temp: Moderate

Visibility: Moderate

Sightings: Bronze whaler sharks,

Summary: With great conditions ahead of us both divers and crew were excited to head out to sea! Welcoming everyone aboard Slashfin, we made our way towards our dive side. Once arrived in the Shallows, even some of the endangered Indian Ocean humpback dolphins were seen from a distance passing through. Once properly anchored our divers wasted no time and geared up into their wetsuits. Not even fully dressed yet the first Bronze whaler sharks, also known as Copper sharks, appeared in front of the cage. Close-up encounters and great visibility guaranteed a great trip ahead. While numerous Bronze whalers have taken turns a Short-tailed stingray casually popped up alongside the vessel before it decided to also give our divers a look at its unbelievable size. Once everyone got to experience these sharks in their full beauty we packed up and headed back to Kleinbaai Harbour. Once again, thanks everyone for joining our Shark cage diving adventures!
