Apex Shark Diving

The Cage Dive

We launch from False Bay which is ideally situated being close to Cape Town and the Boulders Penguin Colony. Shark Cage Diving trips happen all year round although weather decisions are at the discretion of the Skipper.

When you Shark Cage Dive you will be placed in a specially designed steel cage that floats right below the surface of the water. The experience of the dive is riveting as sharks are drawn to the cage with bait.

The dive was awesome and it was even more amazing than we expected! We were really able to take in the sharks size, presence and realise how majestic they are in the water” – Keith and Andrea Rowley

All our Shark Cage Diving excursions take place under the supervision of a qualified team of experts.
