Itinerary

Your quests will have snacks at the dive center, change into their wetsuits and then head to the boat. After a short boat trip out to sea, we will begin to attract the sharks and the divers will get in the cage. No snorkeling or diving experience is required. We are very often visited by your bronze whaler sharks and cape fur seals. Less frequent sightings include short-tail stingrays, sunfish, sevengill sharks and the great white shark. We often see southern right whales on the boat trip as well (depending on the season). Once back at the dive center, your guests will enjoy nice warm showers and a hearty lunch with a stunning view. After lunch you will head to the whale watching vessel for an exciting whale encounter.
