Unlike bungy jumping or sky diving, the adrenaline rush from shark cage diving comes from being face to face with one of the world’s greatest predators: the Great White Shark.
The experience puts you in their territory while the safety of the activity allows you to be an observer and learn what Great White Sharks are really like. An on board marine biologist will educate you about this amazing apex predator.
Shark Cage Diving is safe for children and elders and gives the whole family a wonderful opportunity to bond in a fun environment surrounded by experts and researchers.
After this once in a life time experience, you’ll find yourself buzzing with excitement and adrenaline. You will have had the opportunity to come up close and personal with one of the oceans most majestic and foreboding creatures.
Here is a brief breakdown of what to expect once you arrive:
• Before the trip guests meet at THE GREAT WHITE HOUSE in Kleinbaai
• You will receive breakfast or lunch and register your wetsuit size
• Guests receive a pre-trip safety briefing about what to expect during the trip and a biological background on great white sharks
• We then take a 200m stroll down to the harbour to board Slashfin
• Travel time to Dyer Island is approximately 20 minutes, with the shallows being a short 10 minute ride (where we anchor depends on where the sharks are)
• On average, we anchor for 2 hours, but this depends on shark activity, conditions, as well as number of divers
• Weather permitting, we take a quick trip through the infamous Shark Alley
• Lastly, a debrief in the Great White House and a celebratory beverage to toast the occasion!
Why We Are Different:
• A dedicated marine biologist on board every trip
• Our Boat (Slashfin) is the largest in the industry (most deck space per customer) and was purposely built for shark cage diving and includes two restrooms, and an upper deck for the ultimate viewing and photography experience when not in the cage.
• A fully licensed Restaurant and Crew House, aptly named the GREAT WHITE HOUSE, which includes facilities such as: 2 marine rooms where professional safety and informative briefings are given before each trip + separate ladies/gents/handicap restroom facilities with a 5-star rating + curio shop
• We guarantee clean, dry wetsuits (a rarity in the industry)
• Our crew receives as many compliments as the Great White Sharks, with more combined experience than any other Shark Cage Diving crew.
• You will leave with great memories and a deep appreciation of this majestic animal.
A Shark Cage Dive / Viewing guided by a marine biologist, a light meal (breakfast or lunch depending on time of trip), refreshments on board and soup and bread on return is included.

Good communication, briefing and service. We didn't see a white shark, but the bronze whalers were stunning. Great knowledge from the team. Thanks again. - Rob Booker
Overall a fun experience. You will see sharks, but don't expect to see a Great White; if you do you're fortunate. However, you should do this if it's something you're thinking about and trying to decide. The staff, the vessel and the facilities at Marine Dynamics are top notch and safe. This is something I would do again and I would go back to Marine Dynamics for the experience. - Scott Richen
Everything about the day was excellent!! I got some great photos especially one !!!!! I only wish I knew how to download the photo to send to you regards Hilton Pratt - Hilton Pratt
Great experience! We saw a lot of sharks. The stuff was friendly and everything worked well. I would book the trip again. - Anna Minzlaff
The staff was very friendly and helpful. The boat was clean. A dedicated place to change cloths would be useful. The "bait thrower" should pay more attention not to splash the guests in the water with the "juice" on their head. Unfortunate that we didn't see a great white. Overall, we appreciated the experience. - Luc Tasse
