Location: Gansbaai, South Africa

Dive site: Joubertsdam

Water temp: Warm

Visibility: Poor

Sightings: Bronze whaler sharks + Short-tail stingray

Summary: An early departure from Kleinbaai Harbour, with a slight breeze on the way to the dive spot within the shallows. Prepping wetsuits, divers were shortly ready to dive with the Bronze whaler sharks who arrived around the vessel shortly after dropping anchor. Consistent activity with multiple females of mature size offered divers a great opportunity to see these graceful sharks up close. Additionally, a Short-tail stingray made a turn at the cage, not deterred by the sharks in the slightest. A great morning on the water, thank you to everyone who joined us!
