Location: Joubertsdam

Water temp: Moderate

Visibility: Low

Sightings: Bronze whalers


Once we got on the dive location we got our bronze whalers


Beautiful bronzies coming in so close!


Lovely animals coming in all shades of bronze!


Our little divers! Cold water isn’t a problem!


Any closer-they would be in the cage


Stunning colour!


The Bronze Whalers took a while to warm up to us this afternoon but once they did we had some fantastic sightings


Mouth open, towards the cage, what a view!


Visibility proved difficult today but we still enjoyed some great views above and below the water


A slow approach


Getting ready to take the plunge! This Birthday girl chose to spent her special day shark cage diving


A pale Bronze Whaler amongst the mix, this variation in colour comes from age, genetics and exposure to UVR


A bit of cold water didn’t stop our divers from enjoying their time in the shark cage


A big thank you to all our guests that joined us today, we hope you enjoyed your trips!
