Best experience of close up shark encounter - While our whole time in SA was going to be amazing, seeing a shark and up close, was going to be the icing on the cake for us. The Kids got excited and wanted to dive too. Communication was great all the way through too!
Our 1st attempt, boxing day, there were no sharks. we were gutted but that's life. The team were lovely and apologised, not that it's their fault. We were given a 2 year voucher to return, but we had a few dates as back up (which they reommended too), and we returned on 2 Jan and saw lots of copper sharks. It wasn't a great white, but we were so pleased to see a shark. They're long sharks, have strong tails, swam around us, came very close and it was amazing!
We had a blast! Kids loved it. The only down side was sea sickness. They gave out snacks, water and lollies. They provided wet suits, boots, masks, and lots of information.
Would definitely recommend.

An absolute must this trip!! - Really great experience, and a real must! A little scary but soon over that and absolutley loved it.
I’m a big lover of sharks so this was a real bucket list moment for me. Very easy to book, and the staff so helpful pre booking. On the day, everyone there so helpful, safety briefing clear and all the staff so knowledgable. Shout out to Lauren who I emailed a lot before hand to ensure we had everything booked and she answered any questions. Also another shout out to Keith who was our lead on the day, who was so lovely and knowledgable about the sharks. M we didn’t see any great whites but the Bronzer whaling sharks were just as good to see, which are massive!! Don’t hesitate … just book this and enjoy!!

Copper shark - Chances of seeing white shark are now virtually zero since 2018. But fantastic experience with copper sharks. Very impressive and worthwhile.

Here's a review: Unforgettable Shark Diving Experience - I had the incredible opportunity to go shark diving with White Shark Diving Company, and it was an experience I will never forget! We were lucky enough to see several types of sharks up close, and it was absolutely breathtaking.
The crew was amazing, super professional, friendly, and knowledgeable. They made sure everyone felt comfortable and safe throughout the entire experience.
For those who might feel scared or hesitant: don’t be! It’s not dangerous at all. The team has everything under control, and they prioritize safety above all else. I highly encourage anyone to give it a try, you won’t regret it!
Thank you, White Shark Diving Company, for such an unforgettable adventure!

Lifelong dream completed! - We went shark diving on the 22nd November! Paul was our tour lead and he gave an excellent briefing which provided reassurance (we were really nervous!).
It was only about 15 minutes out to see before we anchored up and within 5 mins the first bronze whaler shark turned up. Paul was quick to get us in the cage (which meant we didn’t have time to hesitate and build up anxiety) it also maximised the time with the sharks! We were the first boat out to the area so we had the sharks to ourselves for quite some time. We had the opportunity to go into the cage twice. The first time we were in for twenty minutes and honestly was just so overwhelmed and excited and proud that I’d achieved a lifelong dream we called it a day and let some of the others stay down longer. There was about 8/9 of us so it didn’t feel crowded!
It was an amazing experience and feel thankful to Paul and the crew for making it feel safe and enabling us to have the best time viewing the sharks. We saw 7 in total and they were all huge and beautiful! All females! I can see how these sharks are dangerous if they’re in the wrong mood, but it was fascinating to see how curious they were of us, they were so nosy and back and forth constantly!
It was great value for money give the expertise on board and the once in a lifetime opportunity being given. I’d probably pay twice, for the same experience to be honest.
Loved it, if you’re thinking about it, don’t hesitate.

Great day shark diving!! - Definitely a highlight of my trip to South Africa and a bucket list item checked. Booked this from Cape Town and the package I booked included transportation. Drive there was spectacular and driver was friendly and held good conversation. As for the shark dive itself, it lived up to every expectation! Great crew that knew exactly how to attract the sharks and bring them right alongside the cage!
Never expected to have sharks inches from my face, needless to say, this was absolutely amazing. Not sure if or when I'll ever be back to South Africa, but if I ever do, I'll be booking with this group again!

Bucket list tour - Very well organized company, everything was smooth and safe. The Captain and crew made sure everyone knew what to expect and ensured a great trip.
We did an afternoon shark cage dive . We saw 18 sharks, a whale with her baby, and a seal. Such an amazing experience, I could have stayed in the water for hours. Everyone on the boat was professional and knowledgeable. A fantastic day, would do it again in a heartbeat

Awesome bucket list must do - What a great experience. The team are so accommodating and welcoming. Sharks on queue and the boat team went next level to deliver the best up close experience. Despite the cage the experience is high adrenaline and exhilarating. Thanks team. Life experience box ticked.

Amazing Shark Cage Dive! - My brother did it 14 years ago with this company - so we booked it again. Really well organised (transfers easy and on time), breakfast on arrival, lunch on the return - both included. The boat trip was 15 mins out - straight in the cage (we got the opportunity to go in twice - first time 10 mins and second time 25 mins) - amazing!! No great whites due to the whales and change of fishing patterns - but saw about 14 bronze whaler sharks - coming straight at you. DEFINITELY DO IT!
