Whale Watching near Cape Town, South Africa Welcome to Gansbaai, home of the Marine Big 5.

Trip Summary 05 November 2024:

We are back after two rainy days on land. Welcoming our guests aboard we left Kleinbaai Harbour behind us. We had to face some wind and swell, which calmed down later in the day. We stopped by different areas such as the Shallows, De Clyde, Pearly Beach and the island system on the lookout for some marine life. For a glimpse of our beloved Bronze whaler sharks, we stopped by Marine Dynamics Shark cage diving vessel Slashfin, where the sharks did not waste time to show up and investigate divers in the cage. As a few pairs of the Southern Right whales are still in the area before migrating back to their feeding grounds in the Southern Ocean we got to spend a bit of time with them as they were lifted by the swell building up in Pearly Beach. Around the island system, we watched the Cape fur seals fighting and intermingling on Geyser Rock. The endangered African Penguins were spotted at Dyer Island overlooking their little bay.
