Description

Go hookah shark diving on a trip to Gans Bay from Cape Town or Hermanus with meals included. Get an uninterrupted view of the sharks with the help on an onboard air supply system.
Get up close to sharks on this hookah shark cage diving tour in Gans Bay (Gansbaai) with lunch and breakfast included. Use an onboard air supply system that provides compressed air to the cage, enabling divers to breathe through a regulator allowing for uninterrupted views of sharks.
After pickup (if option chosen), arrive at the diving company right near the water and enjoy a light breakfast and refreshments as you complete all the necessary steps to prepare for the activity, including an extensive safety briefing.
Then, board the 12-meter-long sea-cabin cruiser built to specific industry safety standards. Embark on an exhilarating 15- to 20-minute boat ride to the dive site where the group will anchor, and the crew will secure the cage to the side of the vessel.
As you receive your diving gear, the onboard marine biologist and experts will share educational facts about the marine life you’ll see, and you can ask questions. The dive master oversees the experience to ensure the safe and correct use of the equipment.
Four guests at a time will climb into a spacious 8-person cage to view an incredible array of marine life up close and personal. While you wait for your turn in the cage you can enjoy the ocean views and shark activity from the upper viewing deck of the vessel.
Once each person has had time in the cage, head back to dry land to have a hot meal and debrief while watching the video of your trip captured by the onboard videographer. The video is available for purchase on a custom USB card so you will be able to treasure the memories of your adventure forever.
Depart when you want in your own transportation or board the company shuttle back to your pickup location with air conditioning and onboard Wi-Fi.
