Location: Gansbaai, South Africa

Dive site: Joubertsdam

Water temp: Moderate

Visibility: Moderate

Sightings: Bronze whaler sharks, Cape fur seals, Short-tail stingrays, Southern right whales

Trip Summary: Another amazing trip today! Launched from Gansbaai harbour, we didn’t have to wait long to witness the amazing wildlife of the ocean. After few minutes on the ocean we already had our first sightings , 2 Southern Right whales around Danger point. Although there was some swell, the sun was shining, and so were the sharks! It didn’t take long before we had our first sightings of Bronze Whaler sharks, both from the boat and from inside the cage. The sharks came incredibly close to our divers, and the action remained constant throughout the trip, making for a truly spectacular experience. We were also treated to the sight of a Cape fur seal, and even 2 different Short-tail stingrays! A huge thank you to all our guests who joined us today!
