What Makes Shark Diving Cape Town The Best?

come Shark Cage Diving with Cape Town’s experts

Shark Diving Cape Town is Cape Town’s premier shark cage diving company.

Shark Cage Diving is an ultimate bucket list adventure and one that must be ticked off when visiting Cape Town. Come out with us on the Blue Pointer and experience this adventure of a lifetime.

Cape Town is famous for many things, its beauty, diversity, and its sharks. We are conveniently situated in Simon’s Town, a mere one hour from Cape Town, and we offer both morning and afternoon shark cage diving trips.

We, at Shark Diving Cape Town are the only operator in Simons town to offer scuba diving (with the hookah system), which means you do not have to hold your breath in the shark cage. No diving experience is needed to come shark cage diving with us.

We have been working with sharks in Simon’s Town False Bay since 1996 and specialise in shark cage diving, shark viewing and filming with the sharks. We are also very knowledgeable about the many other sea animals we see on our trips such as a variety of whales, dolphins, sting rays and birds.

Safety is our top priority, and we will not compromise your welfare by going to sea in unfit conditions.

Our dedicated and enthusiastic crew have been working with sharks for many years, and their love for these beautiful animals and all marine life in False Bay is evident in their passion at work.

Not only do we encourage you to come to join us in shark cage diving or viewing, but our aim is also to educate and pass on our passion to you so that in turn you will pass this on to others in order that they can learn about these magnificent creatures.

We take out small groups only, of twelve or less, so that you can have a more enjoyable shark trip without the crowds.

Our shark trips are half-day trips, and we encourage you while you are here in Simon’s Town to come explore the Southern Peninsula. Visit Cape Point Nature Reserve, and Boulders Penguins and come have lunch in one of many of our great restaurants.

So come join Shark Cage Diving Cape Town on our shark cage diving and viewing trips and make your dreams come true.

TESTIMONIALS

I had one of the most incredible experiences of my whole life on my trip with African Shark Eco-Charters. My husband had been out with them several times before we met, years ago, but it was a first for me. I only expected to be cage-diving (which was awesome - I was nervous about what to do, using the respirator etc, but it was all explained so well and Cat easily answered my questions and set my mind at rest. We saw lots of bronze whaler sharks!). We also went to Seal Island, an amazing sight! But the highlight without a doubt was when we met a huge pod of dolphins. Crew estimated well over a thousand of them - they swam alongside, in front of, and all around the boat as far as the eye could see. It was absolutely unbelievable! The whole trip was a dream, and the crew were so professional and passionate about everything we saw, and keen to share their knowledge. We were even provided with snacks and sandwiches after our cage dives. Thank you to Rob and the whole team for a honeymoon memory that will last a lifetime!

We had a wonderful experience! We ended up seeing 3 sharks! They also helped us put together a custom itinerary to help us make the most of our visit. After the shark dive, we saw the penguins at Boulders Beach, ostriches at Cape Point, and multiple scenic vistas on the coastal road along the west side (including Chapman’s Peak, Camp’s Bay, etc), and finally sunset atop Signal Hill!

Hey guys, just wanted to say we had such a wonderful time today. Thank you so much. Hayley was so overwhelmed by the experience,dolphins and sharks. I'd never seen Bronzies before. Such a sleek,elegant shark. Just made my day, and the crew were really lovely, professional and approachable with answers to all our questions. Boy I've missed this place! Made special by you all. Good luck with the on coming season.
