Summary: Another day of favourable oceanic conditions, leaving Kleinbaai Harbour with sunshine to accompany us. Before arriving on anchor, we got to experience a pod of Bottlenose dolphins in the shallows, the first of many amazing wildlife sightings. Once on anchor, divers were in their wetsuits, quickly welcomed by the Bronze Whaler sharks. An additional shark species, the Broadnose Sevengill, also gave divers an up close and thrilling interaction! For the second trip of the day we also got some amazing Bottlenose Dolphin sightings before heading to our dive site! During our trip, we had close-ups of two different Broadnose Sevengill sharks! We also had a quick Bronze Whaler shark around! Thank you to everyone who joined us today, it was a pleasure having you on board Slashfin!
