WHAT WILL YOU SEE?
Site1: Kelp forest
At this dive site, we dive in Cape Town’s beautiful kelp forest. Be prepared to be amazed by the magical tranquillity in these forests. We see local fish species that come and hide here, as well as beautiful soft corals. The colours are that of autumn purples, oranges, green and brown. Sometimes, we even see an octopus!
Site 2: Small shipwreck
Here, we proceed to dive on a small shipwreck. The wreck has been underwater for a long time, meaning that it has become an artificial reef - lots of small soft coral grow on it, and fish live in and around it. There is also a small kelp forest nearby which we visit.
