Great white shark diving at Gansbaai in South Africa is possibly the greatest thrill that you will ever experience. Just imagine pulling up on the boat in ‘Shark Alley', the open stretch of water between the mainland and Dyer Island off Gansbaai, referred to as the shark diving capital of the world. You sit patiently whilst the crew rummage in their bag of treats for these predators of the deep. To most people, sloshing around in a container full of fish heads and shark liver may not sound too desirable, but to our guests this is fantastic as it is a tasty meal for a great white.
