Itinerary
After pick up at your accommodation in Cape Town we will travel for approximately 2.5-hours to Gansbaai, where we will come face-to-face with the Great White Shark in its natural habitat. You exact pick up time will be communicated to you the day before the tour, but is usually 6:00am.
Upon our arrival in Gansbaai, you will receive a briefing of the adventure whilst enjoying a light breakfast. (We recommend that visitors request a pre-packed breakfast from their accommodation.) Following our briefing we will charter a shared boat and set sail on the open seas for an exciting 3 hours of shark cage diving. During this time the crew members will engage the sharks to swim close to the boat so that you can have a close-up view. Please note that all diving gear and equipment are included in the adventure. (Please bring your own towel.) Once the experience has come to an end we will return to the shore, where there will be warm showers and fresh towels available. We will watch the day's events on a DVD television screen and receive our diving adventure certificates. These DVDs will be available to purchase.
After this thrilling experience, we will travel back towards Cape Town with a stop at Stony Point Penguins Colony to view the African Penguins. Stony Point is home to one of the largest Penguins Colonies in Africa.
Our return route is via the scenic R44 coastal route with a stop at the viewpoint for photos. Upon our return to Cape Town you will be dropped off at your accommodation.

About Cape Town
Cape Town spreads between Table Mountain and the sea, a striking city of beaches, vineyards, penguins and history near Africa's southwestern tip.
Table Mountain's flat summit looms over everything, reached by cableway or by hiking trails, with Lion's Head and Signal Hill flanking it. Below, the V&A Waterfront bustles around the working harbour, and boats leave from there for Robben Island, where Nelson Mandela was held for eighteen years. The colourful houses of Bo-Kaap climb the slopes above the city centre and the Company's Garden.
Top-ranked sights in Cape Town: Boulders Beach, Cape of Good Hope, Chapman’s Peak Drive.
