Great White Shark Cage Diving
 
 
After you have been collected by the driver enjoy the beautiful 2 hr drive to Gansbaai.

Upon arrival you will receive a tasty aircraft-style breakfast before boarding a vessel to transport you to "Shark Alley" which is between Dyer Island and Geyser rock.

 

Dyer Island is the breeding ground of Jackass Penguins, Cape Cormorants and Gannets, while Geyser Rock is a breeding Mecca for Cape Fur Seals and currently home to approx. 50 000 seals. At "Shark Alley" the boat will be anchored and the crew will begin with attracting the Great White sharks.

 

A big spacious cage will be attached to the boat and from there anybody can safely watch the shark with snorkelling gear. Upon request it is possible to us Scuba gear but because the Great Whites comes up to the surface this is not necessary to get a good view of the sharks. All equipment rentals like wetsuits, masks and weights are included.

 

In season, whales and dolphins may also be spotted.

 

Upon return in the harbour you will receive a tasty lunch and also have the opportunity to purchase a personal DVD of your trip! After this lunch you are transported back to Cape Town.

 

Where?

All shark cage diving takes place in Gansbay which is about 2 hours driving from Cape Town. That is why we offer all our shark cage tours with transport. Transport is done with luxurious busses that are fully air-conditioned.
