Marine Big 5 Daily Blog 13 April

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

Trip Summary 13 April 2023:

We began our trip today by first heading out into deeper waters in search of any signs of whales in the bay! We were incredibly fortunate to encounter two Bryde’s whales which gave us a few nice looks before taking some deeper dives. While watching these whales we also had numerous Shy Albatrosses around us. Following this, we made our way toward the world-famous Shark Alley where the ever-curious Cape Fur seals delighted our guests on board with their antics! Next up was Dyer Island where we spotted several African Penguins on land. By our shark cage diving boat, Slashfin, we enjoyed the Bronze Whaler sharks before heading back to Kleinbaai Harbour!
