Location: Gansbaai, South Africa

Dive site: Joubertsdam

Water temp: Moderate

Visibility: Good

Sightings: Bronze whaler sharks, Cape fur seal + African penguins

Trip Summary: A brilliant day overall for Bronze Whaler Shark activity, with the presence of multiple individuals throughout all trips! Despite a windy start, the conditions improved throughout the day, allowing for an enjoyable experience for guests in the cage and on the boat. The presence of individuals from sub-adult to mature, tied with good visibility, meant divers were able to witness these sharks in all shapes and sizes! For our 2. trip of the day, we got lucky to see a small raft of endangered African penguins on our way out of Kleinbaai Harbor! Thank you to all who joined us today, it was a pleasure having you on board Slashfin!
