Great experience
Amazing experience, everyone was so friendly. Saw 14 bronze whaler sharks! We also saw a sting ray and a friendly seal. We were picked up from our hotel at 5am and then we were back by 3pm. I was a bit scared but all fears were put at ease thanks to the knowledge and experience of the crew. Thank you so much for a great day out.

Great experience
We had such a great time with these guys, the weather was great and we were able to see quite a few copper head sharks and seals on our trip. The guides were really good, kept us safe and made sure we were comfortable throughout the trip. We bought the video they made of us whilst we were out at sea. Back at base there was plenty of refreshments and breakfast to begin the day, finished with a lovely lunch when we returned from the tour. If we return to South Africa we will likely do this again.

Amazing, just book it!
First of all, Mieke was great at communicating and offered an alternative date when the weather was not optimal. Our driver Shaheen was lovely, he arrived promptly and drove expertly, he gave us comfkrt breaks and showed us points of interest on the journey. Including the baboons on the return trip. He was so friendly and it was a smooth trip there and back. Cameron welcomed us and Reuben and Nick took care of everything on the actual dive. We saw lots of sharks . Bronze whaler sharks and a rare 7gill cow shark. The hookah dive was super easy and Reuben took some great footage. The crew helped me get in and out of the cage as I’ve had a knee replacement and they were really considerate of that. The warm meal and debrief afterwards were a welcome addition. We would highly recommend this!

Highlight of our trip to the Cape
Fabulous to experience and a highlight of our trip to South Africa. We opted to get a driver to pick us up in CT, which was a good decision, given the distance. We were not disappointed—at least 20 sightings. Our kids loved it and we were all in the cage together, so they weren’t scared. You should not miss this one!

Shark Dive with Hookah Air Supply
It was an insane experience to be able to dive with the bronze whaler sharks. There were so many sharks to see as well as a short tail stingray. The boat is able to hold about 22 people so it’s a sizeable boat but you are still able to get sea sick if you are prone to that. It is extremely informational and the crew are super helpful with everything! I really suggest bringing your own camera to get footage for yourself. The hookah air supply is really nice because you can stay under the water for the entire 10-15 minutes. You get to get in the cage twice so you have more experience the second time and are more prepared for everything. All in all it’s an epic experience and would highly recommend.
