Daily trip 16 March 2012

16/03/12

Location: Joubertsdam

Water temperature: 16.6’C

Depth: 9m

Conditions: Calm – Choppy by the end

Visibility: 2m

Conditions were perfect upon arrival in Joubertsdam but we could see the cold front approaching on the horizon. The sharks responded within minutes and before long we had four circling the boat, one smaller shark and three big ones. The largest was around the 4 meter mark and came very close to the cage on several occasions. Before long we were joined by others and the trip was almost done by the time the weather began to move in. We rushed back for the cover of the Great White House before the rain began to pour down!
