Location: Gansbaai, South Africa

Dive site: Joubertsdam

Water temp: Warm

Visibility: Moderate

Sightings: Bronze whaler sharks, Humpback Dolphins, Cape fur seals, African Penguins + Bryde’s whale

Summary: A stunning day spent onboard Slashfin with an adventurous group of guests! On our way to the dive site, we were lucky enough to encounter Indian Ocean humpback dolphins, an endangered species that calls our shallow area home. Shortly after arriving at our anchor site, Bronze Whaler sharks began circling the cage. With the warmer water temperatures, these cold-blooded elasmobranchs were thriving, and so were our guests! After the dive, we headed to Shark Alley, where we were surrounded by thousands of Cape fur seals. On our way back to the harbour we had the chance to spot a Bryde’s whale, making the day with Marine Dynamics even more special. A huge thank you to all our guests for joining us today!
