From August to mid-September, the water temperature starts to cool, signalling the start of the Great White breeding season and attracting smaller and younger male sharks to the area. They are curious, excited, and high-spirited, which often leads to them crowding the cages. You will get the most up-close and personal experience with the sharks during this time as they try their hand at breeding with any females that arrive in the area early in the season. 

From mid-September to mid-October, as the waters cool more and the younger sharks have tired themselves out, the larger male sharks come into the area for their chance to mate. They are calmer and tend to be seasoned pro’s, so you can expect slower, more deliberate movements from them. These male sharks can get up to 5 meters long!

From mid-October into late November, the weather conditions turn rainer and rougher; however, this is the best time to see the largest male and female sharks. They scare off the smaller, younger sharks and settle in for the serious breeding season.
