The Greatest Shoal on Earth in South Africa

Dive Travel Business News - May 6, 2010) -- Extraordinary Expeditions offers the "Greatest Shoal on Earth" with its first-ever live-aboard expeditions to South Africa's annual sardine run this June and July 2011.

The futuristic, state of the art, 115 foot stabilized tri-maran Ocean Adventurer,  combined with dedicated professional guides ensure divers experience the shoal as never before. The boat's speed, sea handling abilities and range give unparalleled access to the shoals of sardines. Whether the shoals are close inshore or 20 miles off shore, the dive yacht can find them and stay with them.

Diving guests are ready and waiting for the first bait-balls to form in the early morning and still be on the water when the last ones form in the late afternoon. Encounter 1000's of dolphins, many species of sharks, Cape Fur Seals, Brydes whales and the Humpback whale migration that coincides with the sardine run. Experience the innumerable Cape Gannets in a feeding frenzy that has no equal on the planet.

For photographers, internationally renowned photographers Mauricio Handler and Amos Nachoum are leading groups this year. They have a few spaces left on their trips for photo buffs looking for an experience of a lifetime with the guidance of a photo pro. Check out www.Handlerphoto.com and www.BigAnimals.com .
