Gansbaai - Great white shark cage diving trips

Gansbaair Great White Shark Cage Diving Tour
Great White Shark cage diving is a must-do when you are in Cape Town.

Dive at the famous “Shark Alley”, in Gansbaai, where the Great White Sharks frequent the waters hunting the 60,000 seals in the waters.

Great White Shark cage diving at Gansbaai is done in a narrow channel called Shark Alley, which is the open stretch of water between Dyer Island and nearby Geyser Island.

During the Summer (October-March), we would recommend shark viewing at Gansbaai instead of False Bay when shark sightings in dwindle during the course of the summer months.

Although this is low season for shark activity in South Africa, "Shark Alley" in Gansbaai still produces activity that is worth viewing.

Situated 2.5 hrs from Cape Town, Gansbaai is known for its dense population of Great White Sharks and as a good whale-watching location.
