Thrills & Adventures with Shark Diving in South Africa

Sharks are possibly the most feared of animals and many people would say that Shark Diving is probably not for the faint hearted – however this really is an experience not to be missed. This is a chance to see the most evolved predators in the ocean up close and personal and come face to face with the Great White. 

South Africa is rated as the top destination for diving with Sharks – specifically in Gansbaai – a small fishing village in the Western Cape and the most densely populated area for Great White Sharks in the world. Shark viewing / diving is an all year round activity but diving during the winter months in South Africa is the best time.

There are many tour operators across SA who offer cage diving with sharks. Many of them have been around for a very long time and are very experienced, providing you with the safest and best possible experience.

You also do not need to actually go into the cage to see the sharks; you can enjoy this experience on the boat without getting into the water! The viewing is exceptional all year round. Please bear in mind that most companies will charge the same price regardless if you go into the cage or view from the boat.

However; for the experience of a lifetime, the cage is the way to really get close up and face to face with a Great White. The sharks may at times brush their tail against the cage but fear not – the sharks never attack the cages. The great thing about cage diving is that you do not need to know how to dive or even have a qualification to do so. The cages are mounted on the side of the boat and float on the surface. Dives are done on a rotational basis and some tours even have a videographer with them to record this unforgettable experience.
