Location: Gansbaai, South Africa

Dive site: Joubertsdam

Water temp: Moderate

Visibility: Poor

Sightings: Great White shark, Bronze whaler sharks, Short-tail stingrays, Cape Fur Seal, Storm petrels, White-chinned petrel

Trip Summary: A great diving experience today, both groups enjoyed a beautiful sunny day along with many marine sightings! Also today there was no shortage of Bronze Whaler sharks, curious and very interactive they allowed themselves to be admired very closely, swimming near the cage and around the boat. Today the divers and non-divers in the first group also had the opportunity to admire not one but as many as two Short-tail stingrays. Their size left everyone in amazement! Additionally, a beautiful and fast Cape Fur Seal circled around us. The second trip of today was even lucky enough to see a Great White shark making an appearance! Our clients were also fortunate to see several species of seabirds: Sub-antarctic skuas, Kelp gulls, Hartlaub's gulls, Storm petrels, a White-chinned petrel, and a juvenile Cape Gannet. Again today the marine wildlife did not disappoint us, what a beautiful day!
