SHARK CAGE DIVING AND SURFACE VIEWING

Gansbaai, the Great White Shark capital of the world!


You don’t have to be a certified diver to enjoy this incredible experience. In fact, you don’t even need to cage dive is you don’t want to.  You can view the sharks from the comfort of our boat deck and photograph them as they glide gracefully just below the surface or when they leap up out of the water and breach.

Visibility changes from day to day and is weather dependent, so even if the sea is a bit rough you will still have the pleasure of seeing the Great White Sharks from the deck, as they are surface feeders.

Shark cage diving is an awesome experience from both above and below the surface. Getting close to this most magnificent apex predator leaves you feeling exhilarated to say the least.

Get to know the Great White Shark a bit better and
