The rumour round the bay this morning was that the sharks were on the slow side today, but that wasn’t the case for us! We had about an hour’s wait time but then two large sharks turned up simultaneously, a male and a female, and we were cooking from there! Both trips had a nice size range, varying from 2.4m to 4.0m, with our smallest shark of the day sticking with us through both trips. Our largest shark on the second trip, a 4m male, was one we do recognize but haven’t seen in a few weeks and he was being feisty for us! He was constantly turning to come up for both the bait and the decoy, providing some incredibly close passes for the divers as he was doing it! More and more South Africa is becoming a popular honeymoon destination and everyday we’re meeting newlyweds who have chosen to test their relationship by climbing in a cage together to come face-to-face with a Great White shark. Today we were happy to host not one but three honeymoon couples on board, so on behalf of Marine Dynamics, a big congratulations goes out to Danielle + Robert (Australia), Swati + Kunal (India) and Nikki + Blake (Canada)! To you and all the honeymooners we’ve had on board, thanks for seeing the romantic side of cage diving…
