Guided 9 Day Diveing Safari, along the shark route where we searched for the famous ragged tooth sharks, hammerheads, tigers, black tips and zambezies / bull sharks. We encountered enormous brindle bass (grouper), elusive frog fish, numerous types of nudibranchs, with the occasional meeting of turtles, rays and dolphins.
Aliwal Shoal has been rated one of the top 10 dive sites of the world.
Sodwana Bay offers some of the most pristine hard coral diving in the world. It has such a huge variety of hard corals in one area that scientists from around the world visit these reefs to study their ecology. Couple this with blue water, and amazing fish life, and you will have dives you will never forget. Oh yes, you may see manta rays, whale sharks, and at certain times of the year, humpbacked whales.
After experiencing such a wealth of underwater life, you will need to de-gas and go and see our magnificent game reserves where you will be able to encounter the Big 5. PS without the Guide, you may miss some of the finer points in life!
