We did not go shark cage diving today, it was more like bird watching! The sharks spent more time outside of the water than they did inside of it! It was a fantastic day! We were also very fortunate to see bottlenose dolphin all around the boat! To put the cherry on top of the cake we spotted a massive sunfish off the portside of the boat! For those of you who were not aware of it, these fish are the largest bony fish and can reach sizes up to 3 tons! I was forced to brush up on my Norwegian, but luckily I was able to compensate with my German! We will always try our best to accommodate your language of choice, to the best of our abilities!

To be able to see four sharks at a time in front of the boat was absolutely amazing! The trips had amazing activity for the supposed low season! They gave us a great show! It was clear that these big guys don’t play well with others in the way that they avoided each other around the bait line! Everybody was in good spirit, especially because the water was relatively warm! Not quite bath water yet though…

We had an early start today for some of our quests and it took some effort to get their eyes open! Luckily we had our very reliable sharks to take care of that. As soon as the first sharks arrived on the scene people were full of excitement! The children on board just proved that Marine Dynamics can cater to all ages, as seen in the pictures. The visibility in the water has improved substantially from the previous day, which gave our underwater photographers great pics!

We were fortunate to launch our cage at two different areas today! The first gave us a great view of a 3.5m shark at Wilfred’s rock with amazing visibility. Thereafter we settled in at Joubertsdam for the long haul! The sharks just couldn’t stop coming, one after the other they were demonstrating their aerial acrobatics as you can see in the photos. Absolutely amazing…

We had an awesome trip with amazing shark and bird activity at sea. We had an enormous flock of cape cormorants fly pass and keep us company throughout the trip. These birds are easy to recognise by their black bodies and the orange colouration around their beaks! The sharks gave us some amazing launches out of the water! I was happy to see everyone with big smiles…

Today we had double the fun, the boat ride was super exciting due to the swells and there was tremendous shark activity. The visibility in the water had room for improvement. This was likely caused by the heavy weather we had the previous day. To be able to see 10 sharks in what is considered to be the quiet season was fantastic! I can’t wait to see what tomorrow has in store for us!

We had an amazing time today on the boat! There were several sharks having a field day with the bait and decoy lines, which we use to attract the sharks attentions and not to feed them. We did have a couple of quests who found themselves suffering from “motion distress”, but they were happy to take the water taxi back to land after their dive. Our sharks ranged in size from 2.5m to big 3.5m animals. It was truly a great day, many jaw dropping moments…

Today was amazing visibility in the water. There was a large female shark present today who gave some fantastic launches out of the water! She was almost 4m in length, a real treat for the quests. The sharks were great and stayed around for a long time, which made the rotations in the cage very easy! Some very satisfied clients were on the boat today, incredible day!
