Detailed Description

Our luxury vehicle will collect you from your accommodation in Cape Town and escort you to the quaint harbour in Simons Town in time for a safety and information briefing.

At 07h00, just as it is getting light, the boat will depart for Seal Island where we will tail the active seals and source the best sites. It is usually in this early period of the morning that you will be able to witness the sharks demonstrate their hunting tactics.

During this time the skipper is scouting for an area suitable to observe the sharks from the water, the cage will then be dropped into the water to float alongside the boat. As the sharks make their appearance you will have an amazing view from the deck or you can get even closer and participate in a cage dive.

You will stay out for the maximum time possible or until all the guests are ready, usually until about 13h00.

Once back on dry land, your DVD will be screened for you to relive your experience, payment for your tour is taken and you will be able to purchase additional merchandise should you wish to do so. We will also serve tea, coffee soft drinks during this time.
