Best weather for Shark Cage Diving

South Africa is known for its sunny skies and warm climate. Shark Cage Diving happens all year round, although weather decisions are at the discretion of the Skipper. Find out more about great white shark cage diving tours.

High season for shark viewing is between May and September. Although these are the winter months in South Africa, Simons Town (our launch site) isn’t too cold to go out to sea and see sharks. Read more about great white shark viewing tours in Cape Town

When making a booking please bear in mind that trips may be cancelled due to the weather. We will always try our best to reschedule trips if we have the availability and if you are flexible. If seeing the Great white shark is going to be one of the highlights of your trip we would recommend that you book more than one day so that you are not disappointed.
