Location: Gansbaai, South Africa

Dive site: Joubertsdam

Water temp: Moderate

Visibility: Poor

Sightings: Bronze whaler sharks, Cape fur seals

Trip Summary: We were finally back on the water after a day of being land bound due to strong winds and high swells! Although there was still some swell today, the sun was shining, and so were the sharks! It didn’t take long before we had our first sightings of Bronze Whaler sharks, both from the boat and from inside the cage. The sharks came incredibly close to our divers, and the action remained constant throughout the trip, making for a truly spectacular experience. We were also treated to the sight of a Cape fur seal hunting mullet, and even a small Puffadder shyshark! A huge thank you to all our guests who joined us today for bringing your excitement, curiosity, and great questions!
