GREAT WHITE SHARKS -- South Africa:
 Great White Shark Cage Diving: Gansbaai, South Africa
Gansbaai
is the sleepy fishing town north east of Cape Town where the worlds
greatest abundance of the much maligned marine predator the great
white shark has been given a reprieve by being proclaimed a protected
species. This has proven a remarkable environment for those of us
who seek an adrenaline high adventure. Only 3 miles out to sea is
a narrow channel between Geyser Rock, home to some 60,000 Cape Fur
Seals, and Dyer Island forms the natural feeding ground to these
powerful hunting machines-The Great White Shark.
South Africa is best known for big action, shark diving and it's the most popular place to encounter the enormous, elusive
and intimidating Great White Shark. We recommend cage diving with
this fellow, but they have been known to make an occasional presence
here and there while free diving. Yikes!
Best Time: Great White Cage Diving is seasonal. The best time for great white shark cage diving is from June thru September.

Great White Shark Diving: Isla de Guadalupe, Mexico
 Isla de Guadalupe is rapidly becoming the World's Best Destination to dive with Great White Sharks. It hosts one of the most prolific populations of White Sharks on the planet. What makes Isla de Guadalupe the greatest White Shark diving destination is not only the abundance of White Sharks, but the water you will find them in! The temperature averages 65 to 70 degrees F. It is simply Shark Diver Heaven!
The island lies some 160
miles off the coast off Baja California and over 200 miles southwest of San Diego in open
ocean water that has over 100 feet of visibility.
Great White Shark Diving: The Farallon Islands “The Devil’s Teeth”
Located roughly 20 miles off the coast of San
Francisco is a series of land formations known
as the Farallon Islands. The islands lie within
the Gulf of the Farallones Marine Sanctuary,
1255 square miles of protected waters deemed
part of a “nationally significant marine
ecosystem.”
