What a beautiful day the first of February proved to be out in the bay! We headed into the Shallows this morning in the hopes of finding the currently elusive White shark…

Another brilliant day with lekker weather and lekker sharks…

Today was the first day with warm and sunny conditions after a series of days with wind clouds and rain. The swell was still up but because there was not a lot of wind it was quite warm…

Today we welcomed back an classic old timer, Vindication! She is a 4.3m Great White that was tagged by Ocearch back in 2012. Her satellite tag has fallen off some time ago and her dorsal fin has healed nicely…

After a few weeks around of diving around Dyer Island we headed back to Joubertsdam as it was sheltered from the big swell. We were curious to find what was lurking underneath…

Little Lumpy was around for the 2nd trip as well and she swam up to a few birds to investigate. The birds usually take off before when the sharks get too close but today Little lumpy managed to catch a Giant Petrel…

Anchored in Shark Alley we were sheltered from the swell and lucky to see lots of active Great White sharks. Today we proved once again that people from any age can join us on the boat as we had a 2 year old girl on the boat…

Southern and Northern Giant Petrels present in large numbers. The sharks swam up to them frequently to investigate but the Petrels were not interested in getting too close to a Great White…

Waking up in the early mornings is something that quite few people tend to avoid. But when it comes down to shark cage diving most people are more than happy to get up before sunrise…
