Sardine Run Adventure
11 days London to London [FB]
Each year, around May and June, one of the most amazing spectacles in the animal kingdom takes place off the KwaZulu Natal coastline. Millions of sardines migrate north, following cold winter currents toward the warm Indian Ocean, a gigantic smorgasbord attracting thousands of marine predators - dolphins, sharks, seals and game fish, even occasional Orcas and whales. The resultant feeding frenzy drives the shoals to the surface where they fall prey to dive bombing avian predators.
Dive Worldwide can offer an exciting ten day Sardine Run itinerary, with a dedicated expedition guide and a dedicated Microlite to help co-ordinate the expedition. You will be based in luxury beach-front accommodation, with all meals provided by a professional catering service, and offered a range of other activities along this magnificent coast.
Dive Worldwide, working in conjunction with an expert South African dive operator that specializes in the Sardine Run, are offering a range of expeditions in 2008 and 2009 that will maximise the chances of witnessing this natural phenomenon. Each itinerary will vary, according to sardine activity but, even if the sardines are late, or do not appear, their predators will still be waiting - offering exhilarating diving!
