Location: Gansbaai, South Africa

Dive site: Joubertsdam

Water temp: Moderate

Visibility: Poor

Sightings: Bronze whaler sharks, Short-tail stingrays + Common dolphins

Summary: Continued low tides for this morning meant that the first trip launched from Gansbaai harbour, leading the vessel around the iconic Danger Point, where guests were surprised with the first wildlife of the day, a pod of Common dolphins. This playful species is well known for its large pod size, displaying behaviours such as breaching and bow riding in the wake of the boat. The continued journey led us to the dive site in the shallows, where the Bronze whaler sharks were sighted throughout the day. Sharks were not the only elasmobranchs seen, with the large and graceful Short-tail stingray also showing interest in the bait lines, topping off the sightings for the day. Thank you to all who joined us on board Slashfin!
