Amazing! I couldn’t get enough of them!! Alice Horsfield, UK
Excellent crew and good variety of shark behaviour!!, Ally Crawford Australia

This afternoons trip was particularly special! As we approached the dam we were surrounded by very fat well fed Cape Gannetts sat lazily on the ocean surface! Lately there has been some sardine bait ball activity in the bay and the presence of Brudess whales and Gannets confirms there is nice amounts of food around for them. Th first shark to arrive was a large 4m female with a very distinctive marked dorsal fin. The water was warm (18 degrees) with good amounts of dissolved oxygen levels so we had some excellent activity from the sharks with constant vertical ambushes towards the decoy and bait. Then appeared some very large active male sharks. A stunning day, with plenty of great sightings from the cage!
