Tour Overview

The Great White Shark cage diving experience in Gansbaai, South Africa, is one of the most thrilling marine adventures in the world. Known as the “Shark Capital of the World,” Gansbaai lies near Dyer Island, a hotspot for Great White Sharks due to the abundant seal population in the area.
