Location: Gansbaai, South Africa

Dive site: Joubertsdam

Water temp: Moderate

Visibility: Moderate

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

Summary: A great day on the water for both our guests and crew! Conditions were fairly calm, with the sun occasionally peeking through. All our guests had the chance to see our beautiful sharks, including sightings of Bronze Whaler Sharks and Broadnose sevengill sharks. We also had a few good sightings of our Cape Fur Seals. For our second trip off the day we were all excited to get out on the water! Not long after we arrived we had our first Bronze whaler shark sighting around the cage! During our trip we got incredibly lucky too see three different Broadnose Sevengill sharks, coming close to our divers in the cage! Thank you to everyone who joined us onboard Apex today!
