Location: Gansbaai, South Africa

Dive site: Joubertsdam

Water temp: Moderate

Visibility: Moderate

Sightings: Bronze whaler sharks, Short-tail stingrays + Cape fur seal

Summary: As strong easterly winds are expected today, we had two boats launch early this morning! As guests embraced the wet and wild commute to our dive site, they were quickly rewarded with the first Bronze whaler shark sighting. The activity was impressive to say the least, with higher numbers showing their cooperative predation techniques. Guests were also able to view the Short-tail stingray, gracefully moving between the sharks and leaving divers impressed by their sheer size. Thank you all for joining us today, it was a pleasure having you on board!
