Do you prefer Wildlife Safari's or Shark Cage Diving?
Our most popular tours include the riveting experience of shark cage diving and taking people to watch the mass feeding frenzy that occurs when billions of sardines spawn on the eastern coast of South Africa. Coming face to face with the big 5 wild animals of Africa is another all-time favourite, but with Dive the Big 5, you don't have to choose. We have a variety of tours that combine the thrills of diving in the ocean with the up-close and personal viewing of Africa's untamed wildlife.

Dive Big 5 is one of South Africa's most trusted dive tour operators - they only use expert resources for shark cage diving and wildlife safaris out there! You can be sure that you are in good hands with the Dive Big 5 team!
Dive the Big 5 is efficient and professional! We encountered not one hiccup on our holiday and saw the most beautiful sights! Diving with Great White Sharks one week and watching a lion stalk its prey the next - I will never forget this holiday!
We booked 4 nights accommodation and scuba diving with Dive The Big 5. They not only have extremely harassing business practices, but they will also try to leverage money they owe you to bend you to their will. It started with paying for our tour. They requested our FULL credit card details including the security codes on the back. We let them know that we are not comfortable with this as what is to stop them from using the card to buy a new TV as they have all the details of the card. They harassed us for days, sometimes up to 7 emails with a response from us. Eventually, they asked to whatsapp the card information as if that would be a more secure way to give them our FULL card details. When we reached the second hotel that they booked for us our troubles escalated. The hotel booked us into St Michaels in Shelly Beach. The conditions were awful and they gave us a room in front of a construction zone which was very noisy and dusty. Dive the Big 5 also added an R100 premium on the posted rates in the lobby which I feel is unethical without disclosure. Long story short, our dives were cancelled and had no further dives planned. We spoke to the hotel and they agreed that we should be refunded for the additional night stay which is no longer needed, but we would have to talk to Dive The Big 5. This was reiterated by a representative from Aqua Planet Dive Center in Shelly Beach. When I requested the R3990 for the night of accommodation and diving from Timothy Ray at Dive The Big 5, he refused. He did state that we are due to a refund for all the diving which amounted to R2840, but no more. I disputed this fact as he is the one doing the bookings and our money was paid to him, that my arrangement is with him. We did not sign, nor were we served, any agreement or t’s & c’s. Mr. Ray then refused to refund any of my money, even the amount he agrees we are due unless we put it in writing that we do not hold him liable for the accommodation. There is a word for when one tries to leverage undisputed money owed to force someone to comply with their terms. I consulted with my lawyer who contacted Mr. Ray, and he promptly refunded the money for the diving, but not the accommodation that even the hotel said we should receive. The conduct of this CEO was absolutely smug and in contrast to what is ethical and legal. I would tread very lightly with this company.
Great White Shark Cage Diving in South Africa is one of the very best ways to spend your South African holiday. It's an unbelievable experience!
Extremely helpful, fast responses, and very very knowledgeable about South Africa diving, i would not recommend anyone else.
