The expeditions
Where shall we go?
Wild stretches of ocean, each chosen for an encounter you can’t get anywhere else. Join a set-date group trip, dive my home waters in Cape Town, or let me build a private expedition around you.
Three ways to travel
Find the trip that’s right for you
Group expeditions

Our home waters
Cape Town, year-round
The Great African Sea Forest is right on my doorstep, towering golden kelp, playful seals, tiny endemic shysharks and reefs alive with colour. Flexible days, easy to arrange, and a beautiful add-on to any group trip.
