- People are normally doing their best to stay away from sharks, especial the great white sharks. But today we are getting as close as possible to those fascinating animals by going cage shark diving in Cape Town South Africa.
We decided to go with African Shark Eco-Charters as they are the only company offering oxygen, meaning that you can stay underwater much longer to make sure to not miss any shark sighting.

But this experience was so much more than just sharks, even though we had tree really good sights where sharks came within a meter of the diving cage! On top of the many sharks, we saw thousands of seals, hundreds of dolphins and four penguins! This part of Cape Town (Simon's Town) is really filled with marine wildlife making this diving experience even more worth it.
From the most thrilling boat ride of our lives, we went back to the hotel (Head South Lodge), changed and went back to the Victoria and Alfred Waterfront were we decided to go on the most relaxing boat ride in South Africa. A catamaran sunset cruise with Mirage Catamaran which was the perfect way to end the day.

It was just amazing! 🇿🇦

We are for sure planning on doing that in Uganda! :)
SA is just something else. Capetown looks amazing. And a happy birthday to Tracy! Enjoy guys! Great video!
Yes it is :)
Very nice video Dave and Tracy the shark trip the dolphins was Osama night light of city was so nice sunset trip the catamaran sitting in front was so comfortable I think you had nice view 🇵🇭🐬🦈🇿🇦♥️
It was a very nice day for sure! Thanks for watching :)
You are the best at capturing great video footage & editing. You’re one of the only channels I watch without fast forwarding. Loved the way you captured the shark diving! Thanks for sharing. Will check them out for a planned vacation. Was the cage attached to the boat?
Wow this means a lot to me. Thank you! The cage was attached to the boat yes. (Thankfully hahaha 😅)
Wow. Alright, now I have to go to SA! Happy belated birthday Tracey :)
You would LOVE it! :)
Nice vlog and very quality vlog as always. Love how you and your partner are up for different experiences and adventure each time. So the cage has gaps in between the mesh? No thanks! 🤣🤣🤣
hahaha I swear its safe :P The sharks were MUCH MUCH bigger than the gaps :P
Cape Town is absolutely beautiful!!! Do Table Mt on cable car, wine tour in Stellenbosh and of course Robben Island
We did Stellenbosch and it was great!! 🇿🇦
Thank you for sharing the rest of Africa 💃🏽.
That is our goal!!! :)
Beautiful shark sighting. Love you guys ❤️.
Thank you for being here! ❤️❤️❤️
@@DaveMani you're welcome 😊
Rob and his crew are the best there is!
Agreed! 10/10
Hope to visit South africa 🇿🇦 one day ... looks good 👍
We hope you do :)
I am in south Africa rn and I went to seal island around the same time! Beautiful scenary!
Agreed! We loved it :)
Wtf? You got bigger balls than me Tracy. You rock girl!!!
Hahahaha! 🤣 Best comment on this video loll
Very cool…on my bucket list too.
Yeah! Totally worth it. 🦈
The video quality😍🙌🏾💯
Thank you :)
Very nice love V&A waterfront its awesome place to wonder around. I know you had limited time but if you ever go back try Ghansbii for the shark diving. Its a day trip there and back but so worth it to see great white sharks slide past your cage that you can literally reach out and touch. You can also see the southern right whales only 50 meters from shore at the right time of the year. Enjoy your birthday in Cape Town Tracy don't forget table mountain it is awesome. Thanks guys.
Thats awesome! Thank you so much for the suggestions. 🇿🇦👍🏼
Thanks for the vlog. 👍 Music. 🎶👍 I didn't know about the seal's island. Gerald the seal figured out a shortcut to quick to get free meals after it followed you from the island.😂 The cage shark diving experience is certainly amazing.👍 👏 Dolphins are intelligent. It is amazing when they race next to boats. Did Dave try to repeat walking backwards again?
Just watched a BBC Earth video where a dolphin followed a stingray as it was hunting for an octopus. The dolphin was patient and quicker and got a free meal. That is what Gerald the seal is doing.
You were smart on the sunset out on a Catamaran. Sorry about the unfortunate drone accident.
Nice drone and underwater footage as always.👍Thumbs up to the bnb host for making the snacks. 👏 Thanks for all the information. You certainly had a great pre bday starter. Nice outro. Can't wait for the next one. Have a good evening and week. Stay safe.
Loll im done walking backwards! 🤣🤣🤣 Otherwise this was truly the BEST! Day! ❤️
@@DaveMani Glad to know you had a great day. Did you get knocked by someone when walking backward?
Always watching your videos I feel as if am actually in the activities, awesome, always appreciate your tirelessly efforts of bringing life game changer and happiness 😂🤣💯 legit 👍
Hey thats awesome! Love that! ❤️😎
love this !!
Thank you so so much for watching!
@@DaveMani always! i’m your biggest fan!

Hi, what an amazing video! What month did you guys go cage diving?
It was in March 2022.
Hey, I am curious on how you got the underwater footage of the dolphins. Could you please share how you did it.
Gopro and a stick loll
Is it true that there are lot of whales and sharks in south African beaches or rather how are the beaches down there in general?? I recently saw a video of a mermaid that was blown along the beach in SA!! 🤔🤔
Loll definitely no mermaids there but yes lost of sharks and whales.
Looks amazing!! Did you travel around Cape Town on you own?
Yes we did! Amazing
Which tour did you do with the company? There are a few diving options available on their website. I was considering the option in Gansbaii but was curious what you chose!
All their info is in the description of the video. They were amazing. 👍🏼
Welcome to South Africa.🇿🇦
It looks like you guys are having a good time. I'm from KwaZulu-Natal. Cape Town is a really nice place. Are you guys planning on traveling to other part of South Africa?
We also went to Stellenbosch and franschhoek
Omg I’m 30 seconds in and have to ask, how was Head South Lodge? That’s where I was booked but had to Covid cancel. Going back in October 🤞
I really liked it. Its perfectly located within Capetown!
Close enough to V&E waterfront to walk to or recommend 🚕? Felt like a safe area?
Is south africa the most southern you've ever been?
I mean... it doesn't get much Southern than that... loll
I did it in mossel bay when in SA in 2019. I thought the great whites had left the capetown area
There is sadly not a lot left...
happy birthday tracy
Thank you :)
My birthday is April 7th. I’m one of your staunchest fans. When is Tracy’s birthday?
Happy bday! :p Tracey was on March 28th
@@DaveMani Happy Birthday Tracy!! Thanks a lot
Fun
Thanks
Does this require a diving certification?
No, nothing is required! :)
❤️
Cheers :)
❤❤❤❤
Cheers! :)
I see now why the colonizers didn't want to leave Algeria, Namibia Kenya & SA & wanted them to be settler states, different from their other territories in Africa at the time. The weather & natural beauty of these places is breathtaking.
Cape town is for sure something else! ❤️
Please all of Africa is beautiful, reason why it's the mother continent
@@kervinaham7375 yes no doubt the rest of Africa is beautiful too but there are other factors that make some places more appealing than others like the weather for example. They particularly tried to make SA & Kenya anglo settler colonies.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Cheers Sarah! :)
The water was very cloudy. Not good visibility
True but we still had 3 very good sighting which was amazing! :)
How come there r no other tourists in the cage ??
We just got lucky! One other guy was with is and he went in the cage for about 5 minutes and was like... nope! Haha
Did you spot any Great whites? Was the Shark Diving in Gansbaai?
Which place is the best for shark spotting in SA?
We are planning any help would be appreciated.
The type of shark depends on the time of the year. The best spot if from Simon's Town.
I never thought MacDonalds is in Africa
It's amazing to have one in SA
I think they are just in South Africa tho...
Oh God another one is here!!!
@@DaveMani How is the South African McDonald's compared to Canada, was it really good though?
@@Ruler1133 we have a lot of McDonald’s in SA, almost every 3 streets you find one
Just a quick one Dave are sharks harmful to the human life why must people be caged going down to watch sharks?
Yes they can be for sure!
Swali la ujinga
Sharks to humans is like you and sausages. I can’t say any more 😂
@@thorfinn7291 not really I had a reason as to why I asked that I have seen divers film sharks without cages so according to you that was stupid question
@@stevelumumba1824 I have also seen videos of humans interact with lions physically, are lions harmful to human life?
❤
:)
@@DaveMani , i would love to!
