Marine Big 5 Daily Blog 22 October

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

Trip Summary 22 October 2024:

A sunny day with numerous sightings! Welcoming our guests aboard we left Kleinbaai Harbour and shortly after had our first sightings close to shore. The early birds were lucky to have encountered two individuals of the endangered Indian Ocean Humpback dolphins to start their tour with. The Southern Right whales were spotted in shallow waters floating which enabled our guests some incredible views of these gentle giants. The active Bronze whaler sharks could be seen around Marine Dynamics Shark change diving vessel Slashfin. Around the island system, we were met by thousands of Cape fur seals enjoying the warmer weather on Geyser Rock and playing in the cool waters of Shark Alley. A few of the endangered African Penguins could also be seen soaking in the sunrays on top of the boulders or on the beach of Dyer Island.
