Kelp forest and pelagic diving

Last week we did a kelp forest and a pelagic dive (28 & 29 October). Here is a short video that I shot and edited that shows just how underrated Diving in Cape town is. The water was 17degrees Celsius with loads of sharks. Special thanks to Leila and Jeroen for joining us on this dive expedition! Hope you enjoy it!

Whale carcass vs White sharks



On 9 September 2010 a whale carcass washed into the False bay. Chris Fallows and the SA Navy towed the carcass to Seal Island where for 9 days we witnessed over 30 White sharks feast on it.
