Shark cage experience off Gansbaai, with pickup options, 7 mm wetsuits, breakfast, lunch, marine briefings, and a certificate.

“If you’re looking for a shark cage diving company, look no further. We went today and the experience was absolutely amazing. My friend and I arrived a bit late from Cape Town (completely our fault), but the team was incredibly understanding and only focused on our safety. They helped us settle in quickly so we wouldn’t miss the boat and even made us sandwiches since we missed the complimentary breakfast.

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 310 reviews · from $166

A half-day great white shark cage experience from Gansbaai with breakfast, gear, hot showers, and 20-minute cage sessions, weather permitting.

“This was horrible- long and far from Cape Town, poor communication, and no one told us that the Great White are no longer coming around the waters they cruise. They did not even put the cage in the water and only 2 sharks came and went. NOT worth the money or the time. The only saving grace was the scenery down to the dock.”
