27/05/2026

Location: Gansbaai, South Africa

Dive site: Joubertsdam

Water temp: Moderate

Visibility: Moderate

Sightings: Bronze whaler sharks, Short-tail stingrays + Cape fur seal

Summary: What a swell of a day out at sea with some incredible wildlife sightings! Throughout the trip, we had multiple Bronze Whaler Sharks actively circling around, giving both our divers and spectators an unforgettable view. We were also lucky enough to encounter three different Short-tail Stingrays, showing off not only their impressive size but also their territorial nature! To top it all off, a relaxed Cape Fur Seal made an appearance, adding the perfect finishing touch to an already amazing day on the water. A successful and beautiful day at sea before tomorrow’s weather keeps us landbound. A huge thank you to all our divers for joining us today!
