Location: Gansbaai, South Africa

Dive site: Joubertsdam

Water temp: Low

Visibility: Low

Sightings: Bronze Whaler sharks, Cape Fur seals, Storm Petrels, Ocean Sunfish

Trip Summary: Both trips today have had good sightings. During the first trip in particular we encountered a beautiful Ocean Sunfish (Mola mola) while on our way to the dive site that came really close to our boat. Around the cage, we had numerous Bronze Whaler sharks. They were highly interactive and super curious about the divers inside the cage. All around the boat, there were a few different species of seabirds that came to visit us together with a playful Cape Fur seal swimming all around among our sharks.
