Wreck & Reef Dives
Aliwal Shoal is rated as one of the top 10 dive spots in the world, but divers say it is second only to the wild ride through the breakers to get there! So hold on TIGHT as the boat rides are often equally as thrilling as the dives themselves!
The marine life of Aliwal Shoal is spectacular & Ragged tooth sharks (Raggies) are regularly spotted between Raggy Cave & Cathedral.
Baited Shark Dive
Prepare to be astounded by the majestic beauty of the pelagic sharks surrounding the Aliwal shoal, from Black Tips & Bronze whalers through to Bull sharks (Zambezis') and possibly even a few mighty Great Whites.
This dive will blow your mind!
🛥️ What To Expect
This tour will be hosted by Kevin Cook and the Agulhas House Team
The guest house offers the ideal catered base for the weekend, while the dive centre features new Zodiac-style boats with powerful 4-stroke outboards, giving the group a smooth and professional Sodwana diving experience.
Join us and enjoy Aliwal with friends old and new.
