Get ready for the ultimate adrenaline rush as you come face-to-face with great white sharks in their natural habitat, safely from a sturdy cage. This isn’t just a dive-it’s a full wildlife adventure, set near Dyer Island and Geyser Rock, where you may also spot African penguins, Cape fur seals, and soaring seabirds. With expert guides, small-group attention, and professional photographers capturing every heart-pounding moment, this is one of the world’s most unforgettable marine encounters.

We offer pick-up from hotels, guesthouses, backpackers, Airbnbs, vacation rentals, and most addresses within Cape Town’s city centre. Kindly share your exact pick-up location so we can confirm that it falls within our service area. Please be aware that the time selected is only an approximate launch time for the shark cage diving vessel. Pick-up will take place earlier to allow enough travel time from Cape Town to Gansbaai for the safety briefing at the Great White House. Final pick-up times are confirmed the day before the tour once weather and tidal conditions have been reviewed. We advise allowing the entire day for this experience.
