  GREAT WHITE - BREACHING
 

A Great White breaching is something you have to experience and definitely not forgotten.
April to September are the best months for xperiencing these hunting machines launch their bodies out of the water, as the seals are plentiful.

Great White Sharks breaching! Don’t you mean whales breaching? Nope it’s true, and you have to see it with your eyes to believe that great white sharks can fly.

Breeching is a term used for the great white sharks unique ability to breach out of the water. This behaviour can be seen nowhere else on earth on such a regular basis. This unique hunting behaviour has become world renowned.

The breaching behaviour is seen mainly when hunting seals. The shark comes from the deep sea, aims it sights at its prey and then like a torpedo, it propels itself out the water, at the seal. The seal literally has no idea what has hit it. Then, with a big splash it’s gone. If the shark misses the seal, then the chase is on. And boy, what an exciting chase. It is a game of cat and mouse of epic proportions. Watching nature at it’s best, gets your heart pumping, and the adrenalin flowing.
