The boat passed by sea lion island where there we so many sea lions sun bathing and swimming by the boat. We also crossed though a huge pod of dolphins on the way to the dive site. We saw 3 different sharks during our dive. The crew was wonderful. I would definitely recommend this to everyone and do it again. The water was so cold but worth it.
What an amazing experience! Steph, Jason, and Ernest were a phenomenal crew - knowledgeable, nice, funny, and thoughtful. They suited us up in gear and we took turns in the shark cage. We felt safe at all times. It was not scary at all. We saw about ten bronze whaler sharks up close. On the trip back to the harbor we saw a bait ball of sardines with a thousand dolphins, some Bryde’s Whales, seals, birds, and penguins feeding. We capped off the trip with a sunfish sighting. This was a once in a lifetime experience!
Unfortunately we were unable to go on this particular tour due to bad weather but Nadine was amazing and found us another tour in a different location.
Even though the sharks were eating breakfast somewhere else, we had a great time. Saw thousands of seals and a few penguins, and even some dolphins came swimming by. The whole team was extremely nice and disappointed for us as well. Hopefully we can get back to South Africa to use our voucher!
We decided to book shark cage diving with African Shark Eco-Charters whilst on holiday in cape town. We had the best experience imaginable with this company and the team were polite, friendly and professional and they made the whole experience completely worth the money we paid for. We booked at short noticed and they got back to us later that night saying our booking was confirmed. We showed up the next day to their office in Simons Town and completed the sign in process. The best thing about these guys is that they have scuba gear to allow your to stay underwater and see the sharks clearly rather than other companies who use snorkels. The Captain and crew of the vessel were top notch and we had amazing luck on the day being able to see 30 bronze whaler sharks on our dive. snacks and refreshments were available on board as well allowing for a comfortable journey back to the harbour. 10/10 would recommend these guys again and when we come back to Cape Town later in 2024 we will be booking with these guys again.
