Shark Cage Diving and Whale Watching Tours

Marine Dynamics & Dyer Island Cruises are located at the Great White House in Kleinbaai. We are situated approximately 180km south east of Cape Town (driving time about 2 hrs).

DYER ISLAND CRUISES - WHALE WATCHING TRIPS:
Dyer Island Cruises offer exciting and informative eco-tours around Dyer Island all year (excluding May). Between July and December we combine the Island experience with boat- based whale watching.

Our whale watching trips are considered not just magical but rewarding too, and are sure to capture everyones imagination. We can guarantee Southern right whale sightings between July and December.

Dyer Island is located 8 km from shore and is completely protected for the conservation of its many resident bird species, including African penguins. Adjacent to Dyer Island is Geyser Rock, home to a 60,000 strong Cape Fur Seal colony. These seals are also present all year round. The channel of water between Dyer Island and Geyser Rock is the now world renowned Shark Alley. This channel is part of our trip. On our whale watching and Dyer Island trips we also see: Great white sharks, Brydes whales, Humpback whales, Southern giant petrels, Cape gannets and Dolphins. Each trip is led by experienced marine guides who will share their knowledge with you, keeping emphasis on the welfare and conservation of the animal.

MARINE DYNAMICS - SHARK CAGE DIVING TRIPS:
Breakfast (included in the price) is provided at the restaurant before the boat launch. Every trip is preceded by a brief introductory talk about the route and what to look to out for. Passengers are fitted with comfortable inflatable life-jackets. Safety is of the utmost importance. We have extensive public liability insurance.

We usually launch around 9:00 am in the morning (note that launching times may vary due to tide and weather conditions), arriving at the anchoring spot in 20 to 25 minutes. The anchor is lowered, the cage goes into the water, a scent trial is made, and we settle down. On our way back to land, we make a stop at Dyer Island to view African penguins, Cape cormorants and many other species. We also often spot giant petrels, Cape gannets, white chinned petrels and storm petrels. After about 3 to 4 hours, depending on the day, we head back to land.

The Great White House offers bathroom facilities, as well as a restaurant and gift shop, where you can relex before or after your trip!
