The Sardine Run is a natural phenomenon that eclipses the ordinary. And there is only one place on this blue earth where you can take part - South Africa's Wild Coast. A vast and rugged country, this stretch of untamed coastline sits just east of the Cape. Formerly known as the Transeki, the Wild Coast lives up to its name as the Sardine migration snakes past each year, from the end of May to the end of July.

In the safe and knowledgeable hands of our South African team, to experience the Sardine run is to witness the largest single marine migration on the planet. No other underwater voyage can compare with the millions of sardines that make their way down the Indian Ocean each year. Perhaps not surprisingly, such an enormous gathering of bait fish lures in the predators. Common and bottlenose dolphin harass the fish every step of the way, herding them into ever tighter bait balls. And wherever dolphin feed you can be sure sharks will soon follow. Ragged tooth, bull, bronze and common whaler, these are just some of the sharks you can find feeding. Whales, tuna, even seals, no one wants to be left out of the seas largest open water banquet. Gannets, albatross and sea gulls dive bomb the fish to ensure they too get their full.

The Sardine Run is not just for divers. The seething activity can be enjoyed by non divers and snorkelers alike. This is an ideal trip for any nature lover, photographer or videographer. Our tour combines RIBs and micro-lights to ensure that you get out to where the action is and with up to 6 hours at sea daily, you are certain to experience this awesome and breath taking spectacle first hand.
