Location: Gansbaai, South Africa

Dive site: Joubertsdam

Water temp: Moderate

Visibility: Poor

Sightings: Bronze whaler sharks, Cape fur seal, Short-tail stingray + Southern Right whale

Summary: Afternoon launches led us out of Kleinbaai Harbour into choppier waters of the bay. On anchor, divers were soon in their diving gear, ready and waiting for sharks to arrive. The Bronze whaler sharks were present throughout both trips, with individuals ranging from subadults to mature females. The second trip were lucky enough to see a Short-tail stingray, an individual first sighted in 2017! On our way to the dive site, we were extremely lucky to spot Southern Right whales, calmly moving through the surface waters, wrapping up our beautiful sightings for the day. Thank you to everyone who joined us, it was a pleasure having you all on board!
