Location: Gansbaai, South Africa

Dive site: Joubertsdam

Water temp: Moderate

Visibility: Poor

Sightings: Great white shark, Bronze whaler sharks, Short-tail stingray, Cape Fur Seal

Trip Summary: Lots of action around the boat today! The rain didn’t certainly stop our divers, who had an amazing diving experience aboard Slashfin! Just after a few minutes that we were anchored not only Bronze whaler sharks but also a beautiful female of Great White Shark started to approach the boat! Both species were curious and interactive, giving many emotions to everyone that was watching them! Even a curious and playful Cape Fur Seal made an appearance and from the depths, 2 Short-tail stingrays checked really close the divers inside the cage. What a wet and lucky day! For the second trip of the day we have plenty of bronze whaler shark activity around the cage, two short-tail stingrays and a really courious cape fur seal! perfect way to end the May month. Thanks to all our guest for joining us!
