White Shark Adventures has been operating successfully in the shark cage diving industry since 1998, and both management and staff have gained a vast amount of experience in this area.

The company is constantly striving to put something useful back into the local community, and is committed to employing historically disadvantaged individuals (HDI), training them to a high standard and thus transferring much needed skills back into society.

White Shark Adventures also runs a very successful feeding scheme.  This scheme ensures that around 400 children from the local community are given at least one nutritional meal a day.  By booking a shark cage dive with White Shark Adventures, you are helping to keep this scheme running.  Between us we can, and do, make a difference!

Piet Smal owns and manages White Shark Adventures and is a pioneer in the shark cage diving industry.  He has gained vast experience and expertise in the shark cage diving industry over many years (since 1998) and, being committed to black economic empowerment within the shark cage diving industry, he guides, mentors and coaches historically disadvantaged individuals (HDIs), thereby transferring useful skills and achieving real transformation within the industry.
