Great Whiter Shark Tours is the industry's leading white shark cage diving operator - dispelling the myths about sharks, one client at a time. Expect a 5-star service from start to finish. As you will see from our Tripadvisor reviews, our staff and crew are knowledgeable and passionate about the shark cage diving , providing you an excellent experience you will never forget. Great White Shark Tours operate from our crew house in Kleinbaai, a 2 minute walk to the harbour from where our comfortable, purpose built boat, Apex Predator, will launch to take you on a trip of a lifetime! On board we have a videographer, crew with each more than 10 year’s sea experience, unblemished safety record and all the modern amenities you expect to make your trip memorable!

Owner and founder Brian McFarlane was a professional diver and skipper and has always made a living from the sea. Brian has become a local legend with his fascinating tales about the sea and his underwater experiences. During the time when Great White Shark fishing was still allowed, Brian caught Great White Sharks, some weighing more than 1 ton. Brian has worked with the Great White Sharks for 18 to 20 years, and has only had 6 non-sighting days in the last 10 years. Brian has an uncanny knack to attract sharks,and offers a 50% money back guarentee and not a voucher for a replacement dive. These are abnormal conditions and has nothing to do with attrcting ( and therefore non-sightings of) sharks. Every tourist who dives is entitled to have a great white shark swim past him or her an acceptable number of times, even though this means that the average trip length may be longer than other operators. The crew is all in possession of the necessary qualifications and certifications in safety and procedures to make your time at sea safe and memorable. Brian McFarlane (founder and skipper) often skippers Apex Predator, but should he not be available, you will be left in the capable hands of Skipper Bryan Jnr or one of the two other qualified skippers. Bryan has worked in the shark diving industry for many years. Our second skipper is Anthony who has been with us for the past 7 years. You will also be able to learn a lot from Gert an experienced commercial fisherman who is our master bait operator who knows how to attract the sharks. He is also a keen fisherman and has a lot of stories to tell about his experiences from the sea. He has been with Great White Shark tours for 13 years. Eric has been with the company for 13 years, is a competent dive master and will ensure you are properly briefed prior to entering the cage. Someone has to get the sharks closer to the boat and this is Dira our master chummer who attracts the sharks by the smell of the bait and ensures a constant flow of chum. He has learnt his skill from his brother Happy who is our safety officer on board. In addition, he is our qualified Marine Eco Guide and will answer all your questions about sharks, birds and whales in the area. On land, we have Lee who ensures that the boat is kept spotlessly clean condition. He joined the company in 2003 and loves his work, always giving 110% with a smile. He is in charge of keeping the wetsuits, life jackets, rain coats and all the diving equipment clean and dry. Annie is a recent addition to our team (3 years’ service) and is responsible for preparing the healthy meals enjoyed by client both before and after each trip. Sales and marketing is undertaken by Karin who calls our Hotels and Guesthouses in and around Cape Town. He may be the first staff member you meet when collecting you from Cape Town or Hermanus should you elect to make use of our personalised collection and delivery service.
