Trip 1.


A beautiful bronze whaler coming up to the boat


Such a pretty shark, especially with the sun out and the skin shimmering


Very lucky to have him (yes, it was a male) around!


Even though the sighting was quite brief we had some lucky divers who saw it underwater!


A lovely family from France!

Trip 2.

Bronze Whaler shark, South Africa
We had some brief but thrilling Bronze Whaler action on our second trip of the day!

Cape Fur seals, South Africa
