Q: Is shark cage diving weather-dependent in Cape Town?

Yes, extreme wind or heavy swells can cancel trips for safety. Always check your operator's cancellation policy beforehand.

Q: What should I wear for a shark cage diving excursion?

Wear warm, windproof clothing and layers. The ocean breeze is cold, even in summer. Bring waterproof gear for splashes.

No, cage diving is for snorkelers. You stay inside a protective steel cage; no scuba certification is required.

Q: How can I prevent motion sickness during the boat ride?

Take anti-nausea medication 30 minutes before boarding. The Atlantic waters can be choppy, especially in winter.

Q: What is the likelihood of seeing Great White sharks?

Sightings vary by season and water temperature. While not guaranteed, Cape Town is one of the world's best spots for them.

Q: Are there any physical restrictions for participating?
