Location: Gansbaai, South Africa

Dive site: Joubertsdam

Water temp: Moderate

Visibility: Good

Sightings: Bronze whaler sharks, Cape fur seals, Short-tail stingray, African penguins + Common dolphins

Trip Summary: An incredible day on the water after a day on land. The previous winds and swell had dropped down to create the perfect conditions for a day at sea! The first trip departed from the harbour and were welcomed into the bay by a large pod of Common dolphins. At the dive site, Bronze whaler sharks were present in high numbers, with good visibility allowing us to see them at their best. Additionally, playful Cape fur seals and a well known Short-tail stingray paid a visit. The second trip were also able to sight another local species, the African penguins before another great diving experience in the shallows. Thank you to everyone who joined us, it was a pleasure having you on board!
