Suggested Itinerary
Departure from Cape Town
Your day begins with pickup, guests can be met in the foyer of their specified hotel. Departure is at 6:00 am.
Scenic city and coastal route
The route passes by Rhodes Memorial, University of Cape Town, and Kalk Bay, giving the journey a scenic start before the main adventure.
Muizenberg Beach stop
A stop at Muizenberg Beach with approximately 20 minutes allocated and free admission.
The Shark Cage Diving Experience
The shark cage is designed to take five divers comfortably, with a maximum of six if required. Most dives use a breath-hold system, which works well in conditions where visibility is limited and underwater viewing opportunities come in short bursts.
The crew remains on hand throughout, tracking the sharks from the boat and directing guests so they are ready to catch the best underwater moments. Qualified divers can also request a hookah scuba system for days when visibility is better than 6 metres, giving more freedom to move and follow the action around the cage.
Please note: hookah scuba is available only on request and must be arranged when booking.
Return to Cape Town
After the day’s experience, guests are dropped off back at their hotels.
