Today was a bit of a waiting game on board Slash Fin! We have grown accustomed to the sharks arriving within minutes on the scene upon our arrival; however that was not to be. After a little of my singing and dancing routine a shark appeared on the scene and we were able to dive the majority of the people on board. After a period of silence, the skipper made the call to move to a new location. There we found some bigger sharks which were fantastic and we also saw a sat tagged shark. We later found out from our whale watching boat that they had spotted a pod of 6 killer whales chasing after a super pod of common dolphins. This could possibly be the explanation behind the scarcity of sharks…

If you are looking to get up close and personal with the great white shark then Cage Diving South in Africa, and more specifically with Marine Dynamics, is a once-in-a-lifetime experience you won’t want to miss. Book online with us and get a free video of your encounter with the world’s apex predator.
