Location: Gansbaai, South Africa

Dive site: Joubertsdam

Water temp: Moderate

Visibility: Low

Sightings: Bronze whaler sharks + Short-tail stingrays

Daily Summary: The conditions continued to improve for the day with a very low swell and just a slight, increasing wind. Not only were the conditions in our favour but the sharks also were fantastic for the day. Both trips had a quick start to the sightings and experienced consistency throughout the time on sea with multiple sharks approaching. The Bronze whaler sharks seen were all of a size that would be considered adults and a near-even mix of females and males. We also encountered two Short-tail stingrays that were very surface active giving our guests some stunning views of these not-so-frequently encountered rays. A big thank you to all our guests that joined us today, we hope you enjoyed your experience!
