My Name is Bonny Swanson Co owner and Marketing Manager for Shark Explorers, Founded 11 years ago, our journey began when my husband left a 20-year career with Marine and Coastal Management to pursue a dream to apply for a shark cage diving license as an independent researcher and eco-tourism provider. We were proud to have been awarded the permit for False Bay, as a person of color to achieve this in this industry was the beginning of our journey to promote inclusivity and diversity in shark tourism.

We provide a holistic experience which includes breaking down sensationalistic, adrenaline-hyped advertising, treating sharks with respect, reducing the impact we have on them and their environment, educating divers about their behavior and the threats they face.

Most importantly we want to show you the sheer beauty of these fascinating sharks and give you an experience you won’t forget. We are passionate about contributing towards the conservation of sharks and the oceans.

When I'm not diving into the ocean, you'll find me dancing or hitting the gym. In my view, the essence of effective marketing is forging genuine connections with people, inspiring them, and leaving a lasting impression.
