Seal Island
Lying just off the coast of Simon's Town, Seal Island is home
to thousands of Cape Fur Seals, who in turn, attract predators
like the Great
White Shark and the Mako
Shark. It is a popular destination for shark cage
diving operators as sightings of the Great White are always
good.
Ideal Conditions: Especially the Great White Shark
is attracted to the False Bay region as a result of two oceanic
currents, the warm Agulhas Current and the cold Benguela Current,
creating a temperate zone just off the South African coast
- providing ideal conditions for the Great White Shark in
particular.
Seal Island: Lies approximately 35km south of Cape
Town and is a popular tourist destination for those visiting
Cape Town. The large seal population attracts sharks and especially
the Great White Shark. Watching them breach through the air
to pounce on a seal is an electrifying sight - as is the experience
of diving among the world's biggest marine predator in reinforced
steel cages on our Great
White Shark diving packages.
