I had hoped to hear more about the life of the sharks and other marine life in the area. To much screaming and "Shakira" moments from the staff. But the hotel pick-up and other logistics including changing to and from wet suits and in and out of the cage worked well. And probably most important, the staff semed to take good care of participants getting seasick or nervous.

Everything about Marine Dynamics is just so professional, well organised and an absolute pleasure. From our arrival to departure it was faultless with extraordinary service, extremely knowledgeable staff and just overall memorable.

A bucket list, once in a lifetime experience. The Marine Dynamics team and crew are absolute professionals - slick, organised, informative, engaging, fun, safety first. A really good deal considering food, drinks, snacks, wet suits, towels, photographer etc are included. The team also do fantastic marine research and environmental work so your fees are going to great people and a great cause. My family and I loved every minute of it, we never felt afraid and learned a lot about the incredible Bronze Whaler Sharks we saw.

What an amazing day! The team of Marine Dynamics looked after our every need.. friendly welcome from Amelia, breakfast, safety briefing, quick hot water rinse after being in the cold water, hot chocolate, snacks, interesting information and photos from our great guide Susy and the whole team on the boat! We saw about 7 Bronze whaler sharks, a seal and a Short tail Stingray! Heads up to Marine Dynamics for all their conservation projects - we need more of them !

We had an exceptional experience on the Marine Big 5 tour, where we had the pleasure of spotting seals, whales, and penguins. As with any safari, sightings can vary, but the team made the effort to show us as many animals as possible while keeping us well-informed throughout. We were particularly impressed by the company's commitment to penguin conservation. Visiting their center to see the penguins being fed and swimming was incredible!

Terrible choice to take a boat full of people out when seas were well over 3-4 meters! Over half of the passengers were vomiting! The crew was well prepared for this since they never seem to cancel trips and they were kind and helpful. Captain carried me off the boat and I was given a cabin to rest in while waiting for ambulance to take me to hospital for rehydration and medicine! Overall, I was terrified in a foreign country. I took 2 Dramamine before the trip.

Great day out with my daughter. We were lucky to see two great whites and many other marine animals and birds. The crew were professional and they looked after us very well. Food before and after was fresh and tasty.

As a seasoned naturalist and guide, I enjoyed the experience and when at the coast, on boats and with my head under water I am happiest. As with all wildlife experiences, nothing is predictable or guaranteed and therefore I did not set my hopes on a single species. The combined experience of being on the boat and finding unique species such as Seven Gill Cow Shark, Southern African Fur Seal, Humpback Dolphin, African Penguin Brown Skuas and other marine birds made it a unique and remarkable experience. The experience was remarkable because the staff was super friendly and very helpful. This combined level of professionalism, focus on safety ongoing informative interpretation from the guide, and assistance from all crew members ensuring your well-being throughout the trip made it a very enjoyable learning experience. The crew also provides you with several nice touches such as warm showers, towels and blankets while on board, even a steaming mug of hot chocolate while inside the dive cage. I further like their conservation and community projects as I believe these have a true impact.

Informative staff, great facilities, and got to see a junior GWS as well as lots of other sealife, what an experience!!!

CEO Candice October from OCTATRAVEL just faced my fears and had the most exhilarating experience ever! Today, I went shark cage diving, and it was absolutely mind-blowing! Being in the presence of these majestic creatures up close was an unforgettable moment. It's amazing how something so powerful can also be so graceful. Big shoutout to the crew at Marine Dynamics for ensuring our safety and making this adventure possible! If you ever get the chance, don't hesitate to dive into the deep blue and encounter these incredible beings firsthand.

Disappointing day out on the boat. Fully aware that these things are not guaranteed, but we did not see any sharks (apparently there had been few sightings in the area recently). We saw a few seals, but that was it.

This was a memorable experience that I’m happy to have participated in. We went directly to Marine Dynamics location at The White House in Gansbaai ourselves, which included an early morning briefing and gearing up in the wet suit provided and then walking to the dock and boat nearby. Although fairly rough water and light rain, the boat ride is short. About 10 people can get into the cage at a time, and viewing of the sharks from the boat is great too for those not wanting to go in the cage. Visibility in the water wasn’t great on this day, but it was still exhilarating to have participated. Once out of the cage, a rinse off, towels and hot chocolate are provided. We only saw copper sharks as the great whites have been scared off and are now rarely seen. Having a biologist on board provide guidance and share her knowledge was great and overall we felt safe both on the boat and in the cage. From start to finish 3 hrs or so, very reputable and professional tour operation.

This trip was sold as the great white shark cage event. You pays your money and takes your chance. Ok, I get that. The day before you are then warned in an email that there is no guarantee that you will see a shark despite the website claiming a 97% chance of a viewing. What they really want to say is that there is less than a 3% chance of seeing a great white shark but almost 100% chance of seeing a copper whale shark. The latter are toothless evidently. So a slight misleading sell in my thinking. Would I go again…. BIG FAT NO

Just finished a trip out Cage diving and it was totally amazing, the crew was amazing especially goronia (sorry if spelt wrong) and bee the photographer, bee got great shots and was so funny 😁 great laugh and goronia was so enthusiastic about the animals and conservation 😀 this crew, facilities and whole set up is amazing and makes you feel so safe. so happy I did this with them, sharks all over place even had a few bumping Cage which made it so much better for me 😀 thank you for everything

This was a wonderful experience. Unfortunately the water was a bit murky on the day we went so we saw more above the water than in it. But the experience was incredible, the sightings were amazing and the staff was so happy and helpful. I got a bit seasick and I was so well taken care of, I was checked on regularly to make sure I was okay and given peppermints to help with the nausea. Our guide was super! Her knowledge was encyclopedic and she knew exactly how to manage the entire operation with ease. The photographer was engaging and happy and the rest of the crew was so helpful and friendly. I couldn't have asked for a better way to experience this kind of activity. Thank you Marine Dynamics for all your efforts and a great experience.
