Have you ever seen a great white shark within arm's reach? You'll be surrounded by these majestic predators, observing them in their natural habitat. This region has the densest population of great white sharks in the world, so get your cameras ready!

Our marine biologists and expert crew members will not only show you where these mysterious and misunderstood apex predators hunt and hide, but they will also explain to you how and where they feed, breed and breach.

Going Shark Diving in South Africa and more specifically a trip on the "Slashfin", is a combination of goose bump thrills, education and relaxation on a luxury boat in the company of experienced experts and researchers! They will show you how to distinguish between a male and female shark, and how to identify a specific shark by its unique dorsal fin and scars. The 25-minute boat trip to where the activity is to take place, is by itself an exhilarating adventure.
