Shark Diving in South Africa and more specifically a trip on the Slashfin boat, is a combination of goosebump thrills, education and relaxation onboard a luxury boat led by experienced experts and researchers. They will show you how to distinguish between a male and female shark and how to identify a specific shark by its unique dorsal fin and scars. Named after a legendary 3,3 m male shark with a very distinctive dorsal fin, the Slashfin is a unique, top of the range aluminum boat custom designed for speed, stability, safety and space and can comfortably accommodate 40 passengers.

• Before the trip guests meet at the Great White House
