Q: Where can I go cage diving with sharks in the Cape? Does one need any previous diving experience and how much does it cost? - Alan Hunter
A: A number of private operators offers cage dives with Great White Sharks off the Cape coast. most notably from Kleinbaai (Gansbaai) near Hermanus. You will get the opportunity to view sharks from the safety of a cage, which is attached to the boat and lowered just beneath the level of the water in most cases. You do not need any dive certification for most of the excursions on offer. There are at least eight companies operating from Kleinbaai, with prices ranging from R1100 per trip. Among the operators you can try are the White Shark Diving Company (Tel: 021 461 6583), Shark Diving Unlimited (Tel: 082 441 4555), White Shark Projects (Tel: 021 404 537) and the pioneering Sharklady Adventures (Tel: 028 312 3287).
