A most spectacular animal migration – dive with sardines and their predators during the annual Sardine Run in Port Elizabeth’s Algoa Bay. Experience the Sardine Run from Port Elizabeth to Port Alfred with Dive Expert-Tours, South Africa. our Hosts . . . Rainer and Silke Schimpf. Sardines are present all year round in Port Elizabeth

From February onwards more and more sardines come into the area between Cape St Francis and Port Alfred, followed by thousands of dolphins, sharks, whales, gannets and penguins.

From May onwards when the first winter storms hit these fish then begin to move north towards Durban. The almost 1000 km long swim to Kwa-Zulu Natal takes them until June and July.

In Port Elizabeth you see plenty of action from February until the end of May each year.

Tours are individually designed to ensure that you experience the adventure of a lifetime. During the sardine Run you will experience boating on the high seas whilst we search for activity of whales, dolphins and seals, who also hunt sardines.
