Fantastic experience.
Great experience from the start. Friendly team helping to make the entire day excellent. Stumbled across a mammoth pod of dolphin that spent much of the day chasing us around the bay. Sharks everywhere when in the cage and a special trip to Seal Island to cap it off. 10/10. Highly recommend.

Blissful experience!
Very beautiful experience with great people. The whole crew is so friendly and welcoming. We enjoyed our ride 🫶🏾 the booking process was very smooth especially with the app, what a lively atmosphere at the V&A I wish we arrived 3 hours earlier and had some brunch there and take photos. I’d advise a morning or midday booking as the CT wind can be very bad especially in the late afternoon . Overall it’s a 10/10 for me shem. Location, ambiance, experience!! Just amazing

Great tour to see wild sharks and rays
Firstly, our driver Ronnie was great! Provided stops along the long journey and was really kind and answered lots of questions. The trip itself was an experience. There was plenty of shark activity for our group of 20. There were 4 groups of 4/5 that went for 20 minutes at a time. First and last group got the best viewing but think that's down to luck. I didn't see anything in the cage, but I had fantastic views from the boat and saw lots of sharks. It was a bit chaotic handing out wetsuits but other than that it was well organised. Bottled water was provided and lollipops if you felt a little queasy. You can choose to pay 300ZAR extra for oxygen so you don't have to hold your breath under the water when sharks appear. In our experience, if we could do it again we would do it without - once your under the water you can't hear the lookout guide telling you which way to look as the sharks approach so it's easier to miss them. All in all a good tour, and we were provided with a light breakfast and then some soup and bread on return. Would recommend, but keep your expectations real that they are wild and not predictable so you may not get the experience you hope for.

An Unbelievable Experience
The opportunity to get in to a cage whilst sharks come to within 6 inches of your face is an unbelievable experience. We are so glad that we did this activity and would highly recommend to anyone who loves nature and these wonderful creatures. Sharks all around the cage within 5 minutes for the whole time we were there.

Cape Town is one of few places to get within inches of great white sharks. On Cape Town shark diving tours, learn about these captivating predators safely submerged in a steel cage. Or, don’t leave the deck and catch the action from the boat's comfort. Whether you book a private excursion or a small group tour, your day will probably be spent in Gansbaai Harbour, home to “Shark Alley.” Most Cape Town shark diving tours include snacks, equipment, and experienced guides. Some even boast marine biologists.
