Activity Snapshot
Activity description
This is a half-day tour 45 minutes from Cape Town to see a variety of shark species throughout the year according to the seasons, weather, water temperature, and other factors.
These half-day shark tours are at either Seal Island or Cape Point as both offer very different opportunities and visibility. Possible shark species can include Seven-gill cow sharks, Mako Sharks, Blue sharks, and Great white sharks. The location for the day will be determined by the best shark activity and sea conditions and will be confirmed with you the day before your trip.
One of the areas, Seal Island, False Bay is famous for the predation of Great Whites on Cape Fur seals. The area and this behavior have been featured in many documentaries including Air Jaws on the Discovery Channel with Chris Fallows, the owner, as co-host.
Whales, dolphins, and many species of sea birds are often encountered on this adventurous expedition. As we adopt an eco-style of operating our trips, going to sea with Apex is like going on a safari game drive and we will try to take in as much marine wildlife as possible on our trips As trips are based on natural events every trip is different and sightings are not guaranteed.
CAGE DIVING:
A small group of guests onboard allows for better viewing opportunities and a longer cage dive. The cage accommodates four guests comfortably. It is fixed to the boat and sits just above the water surface. NO DIVING EXPERIENCE IS REQUIRED.
