Shark Cage Diving and Viewing with transport from Cape Town

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We are pleased that you enjoyed the seal snorkel, but we would like to clarify several points in your review. Marine Dynamics does not advertise, guarantee or promote Great White Sharks on our website, social media, Tripadvisor or our brochures. If Great White Sharks were presented to you as an expected part of your experience, this would need to be addressed with the safari agent through whom you booked, as that is not how we market our shark tours. Shark sightings are wildlife encounters, not something we can control or guarantee. We do not feed sharks to attract them, and there were three days during this period when shark activity was particularly slow. This is nature, and responsible wildlife tourism means accepting that conditions and sightings can vary. Sea activities are also weather- and tide-dependent. On the day of your tour, an early start was necessary because the wind was expected to increase later, which is why the departure time was earlier than usual. We are sorry your review focuses almost entirely on the absence of sharks while overlooking the educational and conservation work that is an important part of what we do. Your participation in our tour also supports marine research, conservation, and education. We are glad that you enjoyed the seal snorkel and had the opportunity to experience the Cape fur seals. We hope this helped provide a more positive part of your day.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. It’s great to know that you and your son had such a good day with us. We hope the memories from your time on the water stay with you both for a long time. Warm regards, The Marine Dynamics Team

Thank you for sharing your experience with us and for your kind words about our crew and the Bronze Whaler sharks. We are pleased to hear that you had a fun day and enjoyed seeing these incredible sharks up close. We would, however, like to clarify a few points. Nowhere do we advertise or promise Great White Sharks, including on our website, Tripadvisor, social media or brochures. We are extremely transparent about the current shark sightings in our area and even publish a daily sightings blog on our website, so guests can see exactly what has been seen on our trips. The Bronze Whaler sharks have become the stars of our trips, and we are always honest with guests about the species currently being encountered. Thank you for your support, as every visit contributes towards our conservation work, research and educational programmes through the Dyer Island Conservation Trust. You can read more about this important work at https://dict.org.za/ Our Swimming with Seals experience is also advertised on our website and can be booked as an additional experience or enjoyed completely on its own. Unfortunately, for safety and the best possible experience in the water, we can only accommodate 10 guests at a time. We do understand your disappointment about not being able to participate together and appreciate this feedback. Thank you again for joining us and for taking the time to share your experience. We are grateful for your support and will certainly take your comments regarding the breakfast and the pacing of the day into consideration.

Thank you so much, Mark! What a lovely review to receive. It means so much to us that you enjoyed your time with the Marine Dynamics team. Thank you for choosing us and for supporting what we do.

Thank you, Sarah! We’re so happy to hear you had such an amazing day with us. It’s lovely to hear that you felt well looked after by the team. And yes, that hot chocolate after getting out of the water is definitely one of the little things we look forward to as much as our guests do! It sounds like you had some great sightings too. Seeing sharks and stingrays on the same trip certainly makes for a memorable day, and we appreciate you mentioning that wildlife can never be guaranteed. Thank you for the recommendation and for sharing your experience with us. It was a pleasure having you on board, Sarah, and we hope to see you back in Kleinbaai one day!

Thank you, Rhonda! We love hearing that the nerves turned into excitement, especially with such a wide age range in your group. It was a pleasure having you with us, and we’re so glad you enjoyed the day.
