Highlights
  • 1 Swart St - Our quests will have snacks at the dive center, change into their wetsuits and then head to the boat.

After a short boat trip out to sea, we will begin to attract the sharks and the divers will get in the cage. No snorkeling or diving experience is required.

Six divers are allowed in the cage at a time, and we will rotate divers. Keep your eyes open for a variety of marine life that may visit us!

We are very often visited by our bronze whaler sharks and cape fur seals. Less frequent sightings include short-tail stingrays, sunfish, sevengill sharks and the great white shark. We often see southern right whales on the boat trip as well (depending on the season).

Once back at the dive center, our guests will enjoy nice warm showers and a hearty lunch with a stunning view.

Well organised trip - Well organised trip with a great team who are very knowledgeable. We saw lots of bronzed wailers but unfortunately no Great Whites has the orcas have of forced them away but still worth doing the trip.
