Intermediate Shark Season????

Golly, it has been over a month since my last post, and I am sure our keen readers must have thought we had dropped off the face of the earth. Alas, no such luck, we haven't been invited to be the next Mark Shuttleworth!

Well,they normally say that no news is good news. Sadly to say, that is not the case here. February is normally the start of our intermediate season. However the sharks have not arrived in the numbers that we have expected and we have had very low sightings indeed. This is a first in 15 years that we are still experiencing "low season". So far in March, the same trend has continued.

Our guests are always told of the latest sightings, or non sightings and most of them have been very keen to take the chance of going out to Seal Island.

The last few days have seen a remarkable shift in the weather and its gone from Sunny South Africa to jolly cold with a severe bite in the air. This cold front has affected the sea conditions and we have had a big swell push. This is a good sign for us, as it usually means the sharks will become more active and we hope to see a increase in sightings now.

Our next Great White Shark trip will be on Monday, and so I will let you know if anything has changed.
