Unforgettable experience. Super friendly and informed staff. Clean and comfortable transfer from CPT. Lovely breakfast and lunch. Unreal boat and cage trip with brilliant team. Couldn't recommend highly enough.
This was an awesome experience!!!! They provided breakfast, cold water suits, masks and lunch. My advice to you is to take your own snorkel. They have you dip down as the sharks come near. I would have stayed under if I had a mask.
Best experience ever. I will definitely recommend White Shark Projects if you want to explore the sharks up close and personal. The staff was very helpful and friendly. White Shark Projects is by far the best in the business with the most friendliest staff and warm hearts. If you want to book a Shark Cage Diving experience than White Shark Projects is the place, situated in a small town 2hours outside of Cape Town called Gansbaai. To the owner Jessica Smith and her staff. Thank you so much for this unforgettable experience.
