Gansbaai is located on the other side of the fabulous Walker Bay from Hermanus, a quaint coastal town that is world-famous for its Southern Right whale watching! Walker Bay itself is a historically significant and pristine reserve that is home to an incredible array of marine life, and there is no better place from which to experience a seafaring adventure!

Departing from Gansbaai, your shark diving tour will begin with tea, coffee, and biscuits to welcome you on board. On its way to find sharks, the shark cage diving tour will take an ecologically friendly approach to finding sharks, similar to going on a safari drive to see what marine wildlife you will encounter, meaning that every trip is unique and that the goal is to encounter as much sealife as possible! Once the boat anchors and you get equipped with freshly cleaned wetsuits and goggles, it is time to get into the water with the sharks!

The shark species you will be diving with is the bronze whaler shark, a large, powerful, and very interactive shark. Of course, it is also possible that you will get to see other species of sharks as well as dolphins, whales, and more! On the boat, you will be accompanied by a marine biologist as well as qualified shark diving guides who will share their passion and knowledge of the sharks and other marine life with you to enrich your shark diving tour in Walker Bay. The shark diving cage itself will sit on the side of the boat and be partially submerged just enough for you to be completely surrounded by water but also able to comfortably come up for air when needed. No previous diving experience is needed to participate in this shark diving excursion.

After the adrenaline rush of being in the water with sharks, on your way back to Gansbaai, you will get to relax and enjoy the beautiful scenery of Walker Bay around you. Once back on land, you will be treated to a light lunch and a watch party of your best moments on the trip thanks to the professional videographer on board.
