Your chance
to come face to face with the oceans top predator
The Great White Shark!
Join us for an eco-adventure
full of discovery, excitment and awe! Find us in Gansbaai,
South Africa - the Great White Shark capital of the
world! Only 2 hours from Cape Town.
Transport provided on request.
Your safety
is our main priority. Divers will be supervised by a PADI
Dive Master and we have all the required safety equipment
on board including two 15 man life rafts.
Our aim is to educate you about the biology
and conservation of the great white shark whilst having a
once in a life time experience!
We
do NOT FEED the sharks.
Our company biologist
is on board and we encourage our clients to participate
in great white shark research by helping us to collect and
log data for S.Africa’s Marine and Coastal Management’s
collabrative great white shark project.
Dyer Island has become
known as one of only two unique areas in the world, where
the chances to view the great white shark, rises exceptionally
high.
A colony of approximately 40000 Cape Fur Seals inhabits the
smaller Island (Geyser Rock). Other wildlife species such
as Cape Gannets, Cape Cormorants, African Penguins, whales
and dolphins are also likely to be sighted.
Once anchored in the channel,
we make use of a securely designed 6-man steel cage,
which floats on the surface, with divers no more than 1m below
the surface. Experienced divers are able to dive on scuba
while inexperienced divers are able to enjoy the same experience
on snorkel. Snorkeling is equally comfortable and safe.
Surface viewing
White sharks are indeed surface feeders, providing brilliant
surface viewing from the safety of the shark-viewing deck
of the boat. Our shark handlers are trained to bring the sharks
close-up against the side of the boat, with the head and the
jaws clearly visible. So, those not wanting to go in the cage
will still get to see these amazing creatures up close.
Easy to use.
The good thing about the diving cage is that you don't need
to know how to scuba dive. Scuba equipment is available, but
we find that the moise and bubbles can deter the sharks. (see
vide on the right.)
You do NOT have
to be a qualified diver!
The best way to see the sharks is to simply hold your breath!
Video
and DVD footage of your adventure
