Shark Alley Express - Shark Cage Diving

Between the islands of Geyser Rock and Dyer Island is a narrow and shallow channel called Shark Alley – reputed to be the world’s best place for Great White shark cage diving. Due to the 60 000 strong Cape Fur seal colony in the area, Shark Alley has been dubbed “the McDonalds Drive-thru for the Great White shark”.

It’s a short trip to Shark Alley in Gansbaai. For the adrenaline junkies, this provides you with the perfect opportunity to get up close and personal with the Great Whites – no diving certificate is needed to venture into the cage. For the not so adventurous, incredible sightings of the sharks can be viewed from the comfort of the boat.

After breakfast you will depart from Gansbaai Harbour for a 30 minute boat ride to nearby “Shark Alley” where you find two islands situated next to each other. We have a 57 foot motorised catamaran that was built especially for shark viewing and cage diving. This is the largest boat in operation in the Shark Cage Diving Industry, offering you the best in safety and comfort. Once anchored in the channel, we make use of a specially designed, secure, six man steel cage, which floats on the surface, with our divers no more than 1m below the surface. You do not require any diving certification to do the cage dive. Diving takes place on a rotational basis and on good diving days, it is possible for each diver to take more than one dive. The duration of each dive depends on the diver and the activity of the sharks, but could be up to half an hour per dive.

White sharks are surface feeders, providing brilliant surface viewing for our waiting divers or our non divers from the comfort of the shark-viewing deck of the boat, where exhilarating photographs and video footage may be captured, at close range.

Breakfast which includes coffee and tea, toast/bread, cereal, eggs, yoghurt, fruit, muffins and juice

Snacks on the boat include water, juice and potato chips
