Dive site: Joubertsdam

Water temp: Moderate

Visibility: Poor

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

Summary: An early start for our guest and crew due to wind picking up for the next two days! The individuals that graced the waters around our vessel allowed guests to experience the thrill of these apex predators. A sighting of the Short-tail stingray offered guests a chance to witness one of the largest marine stingray species. Few Cape fur seals join us too. Thank you to everyone who joined us onboard Slashfin today, it was a pleasure having you all!
