You do not have to go to the North Pole to view penguins because you can discover some African penguins in this Bay. In the midst of wonderful scenery made up of mountains and water, you will find a whole colony of African penguins that will surely delight you.
In the past, they were quite numerous, but due to increased development and environmental problems, the number of African penguins is sharply declining. You should not miss them if you are going in the area.
Try Shark cage diving
This is not something for the faint-hearted. You will be placed in a protective cage that is immersed in water while sharks swim close by. Different types of sharks inhabit the water of South Africa, namely tiger sharks and hammerheads. This is an activity that will surely get your adrenaline pumping.
There are many different activities that can be carried out in South Africa besides the one listed above. If you like more physical activities, you can also consider abseiling down Table Mountain. The view you get from above is amazing and will make a visit to South Africa worthwhile. So the next time you are heading to South Africa, try these activities and do not forget your camera for some breathtaking shots.
