Exciting Shark Trip! - This was a very exciting trip! The sharks swim right by the cage! The pickup was right on time and everything went so smoothly -its a very organized and experienced company. They served us breakfast with a safety overview before going out on the boat; served hot chocolate on the boat; and then hot soup when we got back. We saw about 8 sharks.

Great experience - It was a very unique experience, loved it but please take sea sick medicine as that can make or break your trip! Got to experience sharks so up close and personal

Unbelievable experience - Amazing experience. All aspects of the day blew our minds, from the hotel pick up, being really well looked after with safety briefing, breakfast and lunch after, and cared for when I got seasick, to the actual unbelievable experience and the fact that we saw a great white which exceeded our expectations as we had been told there was little chance of seeing one. We were surprised how long you spend in the cage. We were told we were a small group so others may not be so lucky but it was at least 45 mins. Videos were offered but we didn't feel pressured to buy it. All in all, this was an amazing trip and I would definitely recommend Marine Dynamics.

Family Fun with Sharks - Our family was picked up in Cape Town by our driver for our over 2 hour trip to Kleinbaai. When we arrived there was a breakfast and orientation. It was a 15 to 20 minute boat ride out to the dive site near Dryer Island. There were snacks available on the boat. The staff was very accommodating helping us get on our wet suits. We saw Bronze Whaler Sharks, a stingray, and penguins. When we got out of the water there was a hot fresh water shower and hot chocolate waiting for us. Then when we went back to the Great White House there was warm soup. It was an amazing experience and everything was perfectly planned out.

Good service. Worth a try if you like sharks - Cage diving with sharks has been on my bucket list since I was young, and I finally got to do it with Marine Dynamics. All the staff and volunteers were very accommodating and engaging, making me feel well taken care of. Got to see several bronze whaler sharks but unfortunately didn't see any great whites. After all, it was worth a try. I'd recommend it.

Marine Dynamics was fantastic, but it was a long drive for limited visibility of sharks - My family did the shark cage diving trip with transportation to/from Cape Town. Be aware that it is a long drive with an early pickup time. The sky was dark on the drive, but we enjoyed the beautiful scenery on the way home. As for the shark dive...we enjoyed seeing 9 sharks during our outing. However, there were no great white sharks (which are rarely seen anymore) and the visibility was very poor. This comment in no way reflects poorly on Marine Dynamics. They were fabulous hosts!!! Unfortunately, nature does not always cooperate so be prepared.
