Our divers were saying that the visibility from the cage was at least 3 or 4m! Something we hardly get in Joubertsdam…

The last few days in Joubertsdam have been a bit slower so we needed a bit more patience for the sharks to move to the boat. Fortunately this was not the case for today’s trip as we spotted our first shark after 5 minutes on anchor…

Some of the sharks we saw today were very distinctive and we were quite familiar with some of them. One of the familiar sharks was little lumpy, a 3m female…

What a beautiful day out at sea! The swell was down to under 2m and there was only very little wind. The sun was out and everyone felt quite warm. We even started to take of jackets and fleeces to cool down a little bit…

The first shark we saw was a little one of about 1.6m in length. We have been seeing quite a few small individuals lately…

After a few very stormy days with very few days out at sea we were given a gap to go out to sea this afternoon to watch the Great White sharks…

The surprise of the day was a juvenile shark at an estimated length of 1.6m! That is one of the smallest sharks we have seen so far and we believe it to be the same individual we saw a few weeks ago…

An early morning start as north westerly winds were picking up during the day…

 Today we had a very young guest on the boat: A 4.5 month old baby together with his parents! He seemed comfortable with the motion of the boat and slept through most of the trip!

Today saw the Zimmermann party join us for a morning of shark cage diving…
