Location: Gansbaai, South Africa

Dive site: Joubertsdam

Water temp: Moderate

Visibility: Poor

Sightings: Bronze whaler sharks + Cape fur seal

Summary: After another no-sea day, we were all incredibly eager to head out for some shark cage diving! As soon as we anchored, our guests geared up and got into their diving kits, and just like that, the first Bronze Whaler shark made an appearance. The sharks were very active today, coming in close to the cage and giving our divers some truly incredible sightings. We also witnessed a Cape fur seal on the hunt, successfully catching a Puffadder shy shark! A huge thank you to all our amazing guests for joining us on today’s adventure!
