"Nice trip, thank you for all the information." - Hoser Family

Location: Gansbaai, South Africa

Dive site: Joubertsdam

Water temp: Low

Visibility: Good

Sightings: Cape Fur Seal, Bronze Whaler Sharks

Summary: Our first trip today sadly had very few sightings of our Bronze Whaler Sharks but we did have a cape fur seal visit us around the boat a few times. The sun was out and our ocean conditions were very nice. For the second trip of the day, it did not take long for the first Bronze Whaler Shark to arrive and our first divers to get into the cage. throughout the trip, we had good shark activity and 3 different individuals and all divers got a good view of the shark. we also had 3 Cape Fur Seals around the cage. a great trip for all divers and spectators.
