Water temperature: Moderate

Visibility: Moderate

Location: Joubertsdam

Sightings: Great White sharks and a Cape Fur seal


A early start to the day, we launched as the sun was breaking through the clouds over the bay


Our first shark arrived quickly with Mini Nemo, the 3.6m male making an appearance


Mini Nemo stuck with us for much of the trip. coming and going as he pleased


Shark cage diving time!


Our second shark of the trip was another male, larger in size and new to the bay for the year 


Whilst this was the first sighting for this shark for the year we have met this male before with the last sighting logged March 2018. Welcome back


Smile! It’s shark cage diving time


Mini Nemo made some spectacular surface breaks towards the end of the trip


A big thank you to all of our guests this morning. We hope you enjoyed your trip


And just like the first trip we were lucky enough to see this large male as well!


He was quite active in the beginning of the trip!


4.2m of beauty and power!


But then we also got our beloved Mini Nemo!


We were so lucky today through and through – great sharks, good visibility and beautiful weather!


Pictures with water tension just before the sharks make it out of the water are ultimately my favourites!


Our intern Lily enjoys the sharkies! Hoping to see you coming back!


Mini Nemo and his white ventral side!


Being a performer that he is so close to the cage


You know it was a good trip when you can’t choose your favourite photo!


Thank you all for making the trip extra special!
