And now the general public, too, can enjoy first-hand experience of the Great White Shark. Observing and diving with Great White Sharks under the correct conditions and guidance is a wonderful experience. Even 'anti-shark' people return from an expedition or diving trip with love, and certainly respect, for this creature.
This is our day:
Pickup and scenic transfer:
We collect you from Cape Town or Hermanus and drive you to 'White Shark Lodge', our home base in Kleinbaai.
- Breakfast at our stunning Lodge. Our continental breakfast consists of yoghurt, cereals, toast and cold meats, tea and coffee.
- Day at sea and a lecture on board. The skipper of the day gives a short lecture on shark anatomy and behavior. He explains how we work with the sharks in the area. We spend 4 to 6 hours at sea, depending on the frequency of shark visits to the boat.
- Diving and viewing. Our cage takes 2 to 3 people at a time. Each person spends approximately 20 minutes in the cage. All scuba equipment, including 7mm wetsuits, is provided - you don't need a scuba licence to cage dive.
- Lunch on board. Our lunch boxes are packed with bread rolls (with a variety of fillings), sweets, crisps and assorted juices and soft drinks.
- Afternoon tea. Upon our return to the harbour, you are invited to tea, coffee, biscuits or scones at our Lodge.
- Return drive. You are driven back to where you were collected.
Our boat and crew:
Shark Team is an 11-meter, 4-ton catamaran with all the latest electronic and safety equipment. The boat was custom-built for shark diving, so there is plenty of space for everyone to view the sharks in comfort.
Our crew consists of experienced Skippers, a qualified Paramedic, a Dive Master and friendly, helpful staff. They operate with the benefit of 15 years' experience in Great White Shark research, conservation and eco-tourism, behind them.
