Approx. 12 km offshore from Gansbaai we find two islands situated next to each other. Due to a number of geographical reasons – one being the shallow and narrow channel that runs between these two islands – Dyer Island has become known as one of the most unique areas in the world, to successfully view sharks. Enjoy sightings of great whites, copper sharks (bronze whalers) and even the occasional stingray at our vessel. Great White Shark behavior is less predictable post orca predation in 2017 but contact us for the latest sighting list.

The Trip:
Breakfast is provided at The Great White House before the boat launch. a Marine biologist provides an extensive and focused educational briefing before each trip. With years of shark research experience around Dyer Island, this briefing is full of interesting facts about the behaviour of the great white shark. Passengers are fitted with comfortable inflatable life-jackets. Safety is of the most important aspect of our operation. We have extensive public liability insurance. We usually launch around 9:00 am in the morning (note that launching times may vary due to tide and weather conditions), arriving at the anchoring spot in 20 to 25 minutes. The anchor is lowered, the cage goes into the water, a scent trial is made, and we settle down.After this exhilarating trip, we return to the Kleinbaai harbour to enjoy some refreshments.
