Marine Big 5 Daily Blog 31 October

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

Trip Summary 31 October 2023:

After 2 days on land, we are finally back to head out to sea. Leaving Kleinbaai Harbour behind us and moving straight to our first Southern Right whale sightings. Moving along shallow waters we were lucky enough to have spotted several pairs on all our trips. As usual, we moved on to our Shark cage diving vessel to show our guests some very active Bronze whaler sharks. Next up, we moved on to Shark Alley where cheeky Cape fur seals relaxed on Geyser Rock. Last but not least we stopped by Dyer Island to pay our African Penguins a short visit before we headed back to Harbour. On our last trip of the day, we were lucky enough to have released some African Penguins that have been in care at the African Penguin and Seabird Sanctuary.
