Seal Island Falsebay
★★★★☆
(9)
Seal Island in False Bay is home to 50 to 60 thousand seals at a time. This is a breeding colony that attracts the Great White shark to these waters during the time the seal pups start swimming.
One can encounter two sharks at the island, rarely together though. These are the Great White Shark and the Broadnose Sevengill Shark.
