    Two world-class shark diving destinations

    Gansbaai is the legendary shark capital of the world — home to copper sharks, bronze whalers and occasionally great whites. Boats launch from Kleinbaai harbour, a 2-hour drive from Cape Town, and trips include cage diving plus surface viewing from the boat.

    Closer to Cape Town, the False Bay shark cage diving trips out of Simon's Town focus on the curious and beautifully patterned sevengill cow sharks — a unique encounter found in only a handful of places worldwide.
