Marine Dynamics enjoys sightings of great whites, copper sharks (bronze whalers) and even the occasional stingray at our vessel. Great White Shark behaviour is less predictable post orca predation in 2017. Daily blog of sightings is available. All content on our website is the property of Marine Dynamics.
Unlike bungee 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.

Good organization. Very good experience ! - Mr Jérôme GUILLEN
We had a great time! It was a fun and professional experience. - Delaine Ross
As someone who is not very well traveled outside the United States I will start this review off by saying I was very worried when I booked this. I read all the reviews and debated another company but ultimately decided to go with Marine Dynamics (very glad I did) and after booking I realized I didn't read how the pickup and drop off worked and staying in Cape Town it's a good 2.5 hour drive and we booked the morning charter so I was a little worried but after communicating back and forth we figured it out and WOW were we glad it did. This was one of the most fun and most surreal experience I've ever done. The staff was incredible and extremely friendly and so entirely knowledgeable about everything. Any question you had was answered thoroughly and it genuinely seemed liked they cared. 100/10 would recommend. - Zach O'Neill
Excellent tour run by excellent people who are very passionate about the conservation of the amazing wildlife in our world. From the punctuality of picking you up and the considerate driver dropping everyone as close to their accommodation as he could after. The day was perfect. Would highly recommend this tour. - Lee elliott
I am a repeat customer and each visit I enjoy the shark experience with your facility. My family and friends have also enjoyed Marine Dynamics Shark experience as I tell them there is not a better shark tank dive company. Well done, again! As we cannot control nature, we do hope the Great Whites come back, and are saddened of what has caused them to flee your area in the last 5 years, and be hunted and killed, solely for their livers by the Orca. We wish you well and pray that in the future we can once again see this magnificent shark. The most dangerous thing about a Great White is its extinction! - Elizabeth Gould
