Where are the sardines?

Where are the sardines?

Joining us at thesardine.co.za from way out there in Port St. Johns is the shark lady herself – Debbie Smith! Debbie and Rob Nettleton operate Offshore Africa in Port St. Johns, the heart of the sardine run action as sharks, dolphins, whales, seabirds, gamefish…so her finger is right on the pulse. Debbie has promised regular updates on the wily sardines this year, and if you want to be right in amongst and part of the action, check out their website and book one of the last few remaining slots available! So, where are the sardines?

Thanks Debbie, over to you…

“It’s that time of the year………people you have not heard from since this
time last year pick up the phone to ask “where are the sardines? – any sign
of them? What do you think about dates for sightings?  Where is the best
place to sight them? I hear they have already arrived in Durban??? (DUH have
not heard that one).

So the frenzy time is almost upon us.  Skippers from outside operations are
busy servicing their equipment, running around gathering last minute
supplies, boat crew and dive guides are rushing about getting their last
minute extra dive gear in place, preparing for the cold winter water time
and if Mother Nature even had a clue as to how much running around and
excitement is taking place, what would she say??? What would the Cape
Gannets, the Albatros, the common dolphins all say, if they could, at this
build up to sardine run time or sardine run frenzy time?  Probably laugh at
all of us I would imagine………….”

Thank you Debbie! Looking forward to the next update!
