Face the Deep – Shark Cage Diving in the Eastern Cape
Ready to come eye-to-eye with one of the ocean’s most powerful predators? Shark cage diving in the Eastern Cape offers an electrifying, once-in-a-lifetime adventure that brings you up close and personal with sharks in their natural habitat — all from the safety of a secure underwater cage.
Departing from coastal towns like Port Elizabeth or Kenton-on-Sea, these guided trips take you out into the deep blue, where sharks patrol the Eastern Cape’s rich marine ecosystems. Common sightings include ragged-tooth sharks (or “raggies”), bronze whalers, and occasionally even great whites, depending on the season.
No diving experience? No problem. Most operators welcome beginners, and all the gear and guidance you need are provided. You’ll get a full safety briefing, then lower into the water inside a sturdy cage where you’ll witness these magnificent creatures in crystal-clear detail — the size, the speed, the sheer presence.
Not keen to get wet? Many boats also offer top-deck viewing for incredible sightings from above. With marine guides onboard, you'll learn about shark behaviour, conservation efforts, and the vital role these apex predators play in ocean health.
For adrenaline-seekers, photographers, and marine life lovers alike, shark cage diving in the Eastern Cape is the ultimate blend of thrill and education.
It’s wild, it’s real, and it’s closer than you think. Dare to dive?
