9Gansbaai, South Africa

Known as “Shark Alley,” Gansbaai, located in South Africa, is one of the most famous shark hotspots in the world. This area, particularly around Dyer Island, attracts a large population of great white sharks due to the nearby seal colonies that serve as a primary food source.

  The nutrient-rich waters of Gansbaai provide a feeding ground for these formidable predators, and shark cage diving has become an immensely popular activity for tourists seeking a close-up look at these iconic creatures. The chance to see great whites up close, often within just a few feet of the cage, makes Gansbaai an essential destination for shark lovers.
