Shark Cage Diving KZN is situated just south of Durban near Aliwal Shoal (only 60 minutes from King Shaka International Airport). We launch from the safest launch site on the Durban South Coast – Rocky Bay. We are specialists in Shark Cage Diving, Snorkeling with Sharks and Shark Viewing at Durban Aliwal Shoal in South Africa.
Shark cage diving typically involves diving in heavy metal cages in the cold waters of Gaansbaai in Cape Town, specifically targeting the large Great White Sharks that inhabit that region.
However in the warmer waters of Durban’s Aliwal Shoal, different species of shark can be found on our cage dive like Blacktip sharks, Dusky Sharks, Spinner Sharks, Tiger and Zambezi Sharks. Because these species are smaller than the Great White Shark and their main diet consists of small schooling fish.
Our 4-man stainless steel shark cages are SAMSA approved, designed by an engineer for diver and animal safety. The cage is a concertina, which opens up to width 2.3 m and height 2.4m and breadth of 1m. Our shark diving cages are secured to the boat at all times in accordance with SAMSA requirements.
This is truly an exciting once in a lifetime experience – bond with family, friends or colleagues as you get close up to the many species of shark found at Durban’s Aliwal Shoal.
