Great experience!!! - I went shark cage diving on August 11, 2025 and it was a great time. Yes, the adventure is not quite cheap, but all the equipment etc also costs a lot. The crew took very good care and everything was well organized. We have seen different animal species, but especially copper sharks. It was a great experience to get so close to her. The water was fresh, of course, but I would have loved to stay in it all day. Also the pickup in Captown worked great. And on the way back, the driver showed us whales and monkeys. Thanks to the whole team!

Great experience - Great time, staff was wonderful. From pick up at my hotel in Capetown to drop-off. Got a little queasy and staff were ready with ginger which saved me.

Awesome crew and... - Awesome crew and experience! Everyone was well prepared and passionate. We saw 3 bronze while we were in the cage.

Great shark experience with a company that care about the marine life and the environment! - This was a great day out and we all had a really fun time. It is a very professional and well run organisation, you feel safe at all times and all the staff on and off the boat are really friendly and helpful. Highly recommended!

Excellent Shark Event - The crew for this trip was fun, knowledgeable, and made the event enjoyable. While we did not see any Great Whites, we did see 8-10 Bronze Whaler Sharks. They came right up the cage. Below us, side of us, towards us. Overall: I am glad I did it with this company because they were very professional throughout the whole event.

Great Team! - A once in a lifetime experience that is enhanced with Marine Dynamics and their epic crew! Would recommend to all marine lovers for extra insight into sharks and their behaviour.

Everyone should try this at least once - The staff was super friendly, accommodating, and knowledgeable. They offer a video taken by the staff for only 200 Rand which feels like a steal because of how much footage you get. Marine Dynamics does a lot of conservation work as well which is amazing and they have a great gift shop. I also loved the penguin sanctuary which helps rehabilitate and save penguins from South Africa and a small donation can go a long way for them. I would definitely do this again this was an unforgettable experience!

Type two fun, but worth it. - Awesome experience but definitely “type two” fun. We didn’t see white sharks but didn’t expect to. They’re a threatened species and numbers are sadly declining. We did see tons of copper sharks which are still really cool. If you are prone to seasickness, you will get sick. I took every medicine in my arsenal and was still miserable. The cage made me the most sick since it rocks really heavily with the boat and there no horizon to focus on. The water is freezing! This has been a bucket list item for a long time and I’m glad I get to check it off the list. The crew were fantastic, kept us safe and checked in often to see how we were feeling and if we needed anything. Thank you Marine Dynamics for a truly memorable experience.

Amazing bucket list experience! - Amazing experience. Very professional team from the start to to finish. I took up transport from Cape Town to Gansbaii. They stopped at a penguin rescue sanctuary on the way and you get to learn about the rescue centre and meet some of the inhabitants. You get a light breakfast on arrival and a brief of what to expect on the boat. You will get plenty of time in the cage to view these amazing sea monsters. I had around 40 mins in the cage which is more than enough. I saw copper sharks, giant manta rays, and seals. You may also get lucky to see dolphins and/or whales during the trip.

Tourist catch - We took this tour on May 18, 2025, attracted by the promise of an encounter with the great white shark. The result: a waste of time, money and huge disappointment. It all starts with two wasted hours: a stop imposed in their souvenir shop (on the pretext of visiting a “penguin sanctuary”), then a long wait in a room of no real use before embarking with fifteen teenagers who were going to participate in the tour and who were extremely loud, out of control and disrespectful. But the worst is yet to come: their website highlights the sighting of great white sharks, which is, in practice, totally false. At the briefing, the official suggested that there was a good chance of seeing them. Once there, no white sharks, as they descended into the cage, the visibility was catastrophic. We had only had two stealth apparitions of a bronze (copper) shark fin, visible from a distance, just a few seconds. They also claim to act in a scientific and ecosystem-friendly way, claiming that they do not feed sharks. The reality is quite different: from the start of the trip, the team repeatedly throws fish remains and blood to attract the animals, which completely alters their natural behavior. Sharks normally hunt only at sunrise and sunset. There, they are conditioned to come near the boats to beg for food in broad daylight. It is a clear disturbance of the marine ecosystem, under the guise of ecotourism. Once inside the cage, visibility was zero. The water was cloudy, saturated with blood and waste, it attracted more seagulls and small fish. There was absolutely nothing underwater except suspended organic matter. The promised “shiver” turns into ridicule. Organization? Catastrophic. We were the first ones called down and had chosen the right side of the cage (the one with the most movement), but the person in charge arbitrarily moved us to the other side to install a couple of Americans. As a result, we were next to the point of dumping waste, covered in fish oil, with a sickening smell. Finally, it was impossible to appreciate anything on board: a group of teenagers screamed non-stop, frightening the few sharks present. Despite several comments, the team did nothing to crop them. No educational discourse on sharks or marine life was given, although it is part of the service. The pick-up was at 8:50 and we were dropped off at 6pm in the evening. Basically a wasted day! In summary: no white shark, no immersive experience, no ecological awareness, no respect for customers. This trick is a commercial masquerade, which capitalizes on false promises and stages a pseudo-science to give itself good conscience. I strongly advise against it.
